[Efficiency of combined methods of hemorroid treatment using hal-rar and laser destruction]. / Éffektivnost' kombinirovannoi metodiki lecheniia gemorroia s ispol'zovaniem HAL-RAR i lazernoi destruktsii uzlov.

AIM: To develop the combined method of treatment of hemorrhoids with arterial ligation under Doppler control and laser destruction of internal and external hemorrhoids. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study included 100 patients with chronic hemorrhoids stage II and III. Combined method of HAL-laser was used in study group, HAL RAR-technique in control group 1 and closed hemorrhoidectomy with linear stapler in control group 2. Сomparative evaluation of results in both groups was performed. RESULTS: Combined method overcomes the drawbacks of traditional surgical treatment and limitations in external components elimination which are inherent for HAL-RAR. Moreover, it has a higher efficiency in treating of hemorrhoids stage II-III compared with HAL-RAR and is equally safe and well tolerable for patients. This method does not increase the risk of recurrence, reduces incidence of complications and time of disability.
