Area of Science:

  • Colorectal Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures
  • Hemorrhoid Treatment

Context:

  • Hemorrhoid treatment has evolved, with surgical intervention becoming increasingly refined.
  • Circular stapler hemorrhoidectomy is proposed as a superior surgical technique for selected cases.
  • Evaluating therapeutic outcomes of stapled hemorrhoidectomy is crucial for clinical practice.

Purpose:

  • To assess the therapeutic results of circular stapler hemorrhoidectomy in 150 consecutive patients.
  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of stapled hemorrhoidectomy for prolapsed hemorrhoids.
  • To analyze short-term and long-term outcomes, including complications and recurrence rates.

Summary:

  • 150 patients (84 female, 66 male, median age 57) with II, III, or IV degree hemorrhoids underwent circular stapler hemorrhoidectomy.

  • Patients were treated in Day Surgery and discharged within 24 hours, with complete healing by day 15-20.
  • No suture stenosis or prolapse recurrence was observed; anorectal manometry showed no significant continence alterations.
  • Impact:

    • Circular stapler hemorrhoidectomy provides a radical, rapid, and minimally invasive solution.
    • The technique facilitates earlier physical recovery and social reintegration.
    • Absence of postoperative medication and early return to work are significant patient benefits.
