Patients with perianal fistula will be evaluated for the study. After taking permission with informed consent; cases will be included in the study. Cases with inflammatory bowel disease, platelet function disorders or connective tissue disorders that may alter wound healing will be excluded from the study.

After, PRP application to the fistula tract patients will be taken to follow up. Perianal fistulas will be followed by magnetic resonance imaging 1 month after the application. Pre-application and post-application scans will be used for the evaluation of the treatment success.
