      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Single blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: In this study, the block random division method (4 blocks) is used. One of the study partners, for whom blindness has not been performed, names the treatment  with the letters A and B. The researcher then distributes packages A and B among the patients referred to participate in the study by block random division method (4). Then, from the created blocks, enough blocks are randomly selected to reach the required sample size. How to create a random sequence using randomization was simple. To make a random sequence, we give possible blocks (6 blocks) from one to 6 numbers. Depending on the sample size, any number of 4 blocks that are needed will be used. Select the number of blocks from the table of random numbers and based on these numbers, the sequence of blocks in each group will be determined, Blinding description: In this study, the data analyzer will be unaware of the grouping of patients and will only analyze the data; Therefore, the person analyzing the results will be blind during the study.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: A total of 25 patients will be included in this group after random allocation. Patients will be hospitalized and then transferred to the operating room. The BAFT method will then be used for their surgery. Before surgery and two weeks after surgery, the severity of pain and the extent of anal fistula healing in patients will be evaluated. Intervention 2: Control group: A total of 25 patients will be included in this group after random allocation. Patients will be hospitalized and then transferred to the operating room. Then the routine method of anal fistula surgery will be used for their surgery. Before surgery and two weeks after surgery, the severity of pain and the extent of anal fistula healing in patients will be evaluated.</i_freetext>
