ABSTRACT
Background: A circumferential strip of mucosa about 1.5 to 2 centimetres above the dentate line is removed in stapled hemorrhoidectomy, a new technique for haemorrhoids treatments. Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate complications after stapled hemorrhoidectomy.Methods:A total of 101 patients between the age group 20 to 70 years were diagnosed with grade 3 and grade 4 haemorrhoids. Patients are included in stapled haemorrhoidectomy. The questionnaire focused on stapled hemorrhoidectomy procedures performed in the period July 2018 to June 2020. Descriptive analysis was done based on the student抯 T-test using SPSS 24 software version. The level of significance was set at 5% (p < 0.05).Results:In the 2-years timeframe, out of 101 patients in the Immediate (within 1 week) complications of stapled hemorrhoidectomy, 84.16% were in None, 5.94% were severe pain, 3.96% were bleeding, 1.98% were Thrombosis, 0.99% were urinary retention, 1.98% were Anastomotic dehiscence 0.99% were Fissure, 0.99% were perineal intramural hematoma and 0.99% were submucosal abscess. Out of 90.09% were in none, 1.98% were Recurrent hemorrhoids, 0.99% were Severe pain, Stenosis, Fissure, Skin tag, Thrombosis, Staples problems, Intramural abscess and Intussusception.Conclusion:Although stapled hemorrhoidectomy appears to be promising, we believe that a multicenter randomized controlled trial with a long-term follow-up comparing stapled hemorrhoidectomy and banding is required before the treatment can be recommended. The majority of difficulties can be avoided by following the rectal wall anatomy during the surgery.
