Under general anesthesia the sawyer retractor was placed there was a hypertrophic anal papilla coming off the left anal column. Local was injected. This was excised using a 15 blade and then chromic was used to reapproximate the mucosa. The was another small anal like lesion on the ana canal which was biopsied and it was also closed using chromic..
