The authors describe possible non-surgical treatment of extensive haemorrhoids grade 3 and 4, using Barron's rubber band ligation. To make comparison of therapeutic results possible Dennison's Sheffield classification is used. In the mentioned new approach indications for ambulatory treatment or short-term hospitalization in patients with an advanced grade of internal or external haemorrhoids are extended. From a group of 145 patients treated by this method 126 were free of subjective complains during a check-up 12 months after termination of treatment.
