Area of Science:

  • Colorectal Surgery
  • Surgical Innovation

Background:

  • The traditional Whitehead-operation for hemorrhoid treatment is associated with significant complications.
  • Complications include anal stenosis, incontinence, and mucous prolapse.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the modified Whitehead-operation by A. Toupet for hemorrhoid treatment.
  • To assess the efficacy of this modification in preventing known complications.

Main Methods:

  • Review of surgical outcomes following the modified Whitehead-operation.
  • Analysis of complication rates compared to the traditional procedure.

Main Results:

  • The modified technique aims to mitigate complications like anal stenosis and incontinence.
  • Successful application requires advanced ano-rectal surgical expertise.

Conclusions:

  • A. Toupet's modification offers a potential improvement over the standard Whitehead-operation.
  • The modified procedure is indicated for total hemorrhoidal prolapse, particularly with thrombosis or mucous prolapse.
