[Diagnosis and therapy of acute hemorrhoids]

The analysis of the results of treatment of 137 patients with acute hemorrhoids was carried out. A typical hemorrhoidal analysis was noted in 83.5% of the patients. Operated on were 129 (94.1%) patients, including 27 (20.9%)--at day 3-4 after hospitalization. Duration of hospital stay of the patients operated on after short-term preparation was 9.2 days. This figure is 4.1 days less than that in patients operated on in a delayed order.
