Hemorrhoidectomy Treatment
Hemorrhoids are a common cause of perinatal complaints and affect 1-10 million people in North-America and with similar incidence in Europe. Symptomatic hemorrhoids are associated with nutrition, inherited predisposition, retention of feces with or without chronic abuse of laxatives or diarrhea. This hemorrhoidectomy treatment study was designed to test hemorrhoidectomies, and if they were both safe and effective. Increased pressure and shearing force in the anal canal may lead to severe changes in topography with detachment of the hemorrhoids from the internal sphincter and fibromuscular network resulting in bleeding, itching, pain and disordered anal/rectal function, even incontinence. The significance of hemorrhoids for anal continence (corpus cavernosus) is recognized. Thrombosed external hemorrhoids are primary treated by incision and secondary by excision. Any type of Thrombosed external hemorrhoid require immediate treatment, of some sort. Complications after operative treatment of external thrombosed hemorrhoids are rare. After standard hemorrhoidectomy treatment for internal hemorrhoids approximately 10% may have a complicated follow-up (bleeding, fissure, fistula, abscess, stenosis, urinary retention, soiling, incontinence); there may be concomitant disease, e.g., perinatal crypto glandular infection, causing complex fistula/abscess, which is associated with an increased risk for complications, e.g., incontinence. Other treatment options, sphincterotomy, anal stretch, have been accused to cause more complications, e.g., incontinence in 30-50% of cases.
However, incontinence is a complex phenomenon; it is evident that an isolated single injury is normally not a sufficient cause, e.g., injury of the internal sphincter. The majority of patients, ones it has not been very effective in, may present with prior obstetric injury, perinatal infection or Crohn’s disease and other comorbidity. Therefore all systemic and regional disorders, causing incontinence, should be excluded before starting manometric, neurophysiological and sonographic investigations. Variation and overlap in test results, patient-, instrument- or operator-dependent factors ask for cautious interpretation. There is vast evidence that the demonstration of muscle fibers in hemorrhoidectomy specimens is a normal feature.
In conclusion, standard hemorrhoidectomy treatment with proper indication is a safe procedure. If complications occur, it is in the interest of the patient and surgeon to perform a thorough investigation. While Hemorrhoidectomy treatment is a fairly common procedure there are also many other non-surgical way to heal hemorrhoids, please continue to research either from our site or any other about the various treatments for hemorrhoids.
