Lateral internal sphincterotomy is superior to topical nitroglycerin for healing chronic anal fissure and does not compromise long-term fecal continence: six-year follow-up of a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial.Dis Colon Rectum. 2007 Apr;50(4):442-8. doi: 10.1007/s10350-006-0844-3. Dis Colon Rectum. 2007. PMID: 17297553 Clinical Trial.
