Comparison of curative effect between tissue-selecting therapy stapler and procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids for stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ hemorrhoids / 国际外科学杂志

Objective To compare the curative effect of tissue-selecting therapy stapler and procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids in the treatment of patients with stage Ⅲ to Ⅳ hemorrhoids.Methods The patients with stage Ⅲ to Ⅳ hemorrhoids who underwent prolapse and hemorrhoids or tissue-selecting therapy stapler surgery in the department of General Surgery,Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital and Xinhua Hua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine,Chongming Branch,from Jan.2013 to Jun.2014 were accepted and allocated to prolapse and hemorrhoids or tissue-selecting therapy stapler group.The peri-operative parameters about operative time,blood loss,postoperative hospital stay and the time required to return to normal activity were compared by t test,The postoperative complications including pain assessment and the incidence of postoperative bleeding,urine retention,faecal urgency,fecal incontinence,anal stenosis,rectovaginal fistula and recurrence rate were compared by t test and chi-square test.Rank sum test was used to compare the recurrence rate and patient's satisfaction between the two groups.Results The operation time,intraoperative bleeding volum,postoperative hospital stay and the time required to return to normal activity in the procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids group were signifcantly higher than those in the tissue-selecting therapy stapler group (P =0.021,P =0.003,P =0.001,P ＜0.001).The pain score of procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids group were all higher than those of the tissue-selecting therapy stapler group in the first post-operative defecation and in post-operative 24 hours and 72 hours (all P ＜ 0.001).The incidence of faecal urgency of the procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids group in post-operative 1 month (18.6％) was higher than that of the tissue-selecting therapy stapler group (6.6％) (P =0.036).There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of postoperative bleeding,urinary retention,recurrence rate and patient's satisfaction between two group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Tissue-selecting therapy stapler was superior to the procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids in operation time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative pain and the incidence of faecal urgency.Long-term results demonstrate that tissue-selecting therapy stapler and prolapse and hemorrhoids have similar effectiveness.

Clinical observations on the treatment of prolapsing hemorrhoids with tissue selecting therapy.

AIM: To compare the effects and postoperative complications between tissue selecting therapy stapler (TST) and Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy (M-M). METHODS: Four hundred and eighty patients with severe prolapsing hemorrhoids, who were admitted to the Shenyang Coloproctology Hospital between 2009 and 2012, were randomly divided into observation (n=240) and control (n=240) groups. Hemorrhoidectomies were performed with TST in the observation group and with the M-M technique in the control group. The therapeutic effects, operation security, and postoperative complications in the two groups were compared. The immediate and long-term complications were assessed according to corresponding criteria. Pain was assessed on a visual analogue scale. The efficacy was assessed by specialized criteria. The follow-up was conducted one year after the operation. RESULTS: The total effective rates of the observation and control groups were 99.5% (217/218) and 98.6% (218/221) respectively; the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.322). Their were significant differences between observation and control groups in intraoperative blood loss (5.07±1.14 vs 2.45±0.57, P=0.000), pain (12 h after the surgery: 5.08±1.62 vs 7.19±2.01, P=0.000; at first dressing change: 2.64±0.87 vs 4.34±1.15, P=0.000; first defecation: 3.91±1.47 vs 5.63±1.98, P=0.001), urine retention (n=22 vs n=47, P=0.001), anal pendant expansion after the surgery (2.35±0.56 vs 5.16±1.42, P=0.000), operation time (18.3±5.6 min vs 29.5±8.2 min, P=0.000), and the length of hospital stay (5.3±0.6 d vs 11.4±1.8 d, P=0.000). Moreover TST showed significant reductions compared to M-M in the rates of long-term complications such as fecal incontinence (n=3 vs n=16, P=0.003), difficult bowel movement (n=1 vs n=9, P=0.011), intractable pain (n=2 vs n=12, P=0.007), and anal discharge (n=3 vs n=23, P=0.000). CONCLUSION: TST for severe prolapsing hemorrhoids is a satisfactory technique for more rapid recovery, lower complication rates, and higher operation security.

Clinical analysis of 110 cases with internal hemorrhoids undergoing tissue-selecting therapy stapler / 国际外科学杂志

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of tissue-selecting therapy stapler with internal hemorrhoids.Methods Clinical and follow-up data of 110 cases with internal hemorrhoids undergoing tissue-selecting therapy stapler between March 2011 and March 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.The efficacy,adverse reaction and the complications were assessed.Results Of the 110 patients,Ⅱ degree hemorrhoids in 21 cases,Ⅲ degree hemorrhoids in 63 cases,Ⅳ degree hemorrhoids in 26 cases.The mean operation time was 18 minutes,range 15 to 25 minutes.The mean hospital stay time was 4 days,range 3 to 6 days.Of the 90 patients,urinary retention 9 patients (8.18％),anal bulge 41 patients(37.27％),fecal urgency 8 patients (7.27％),no other complications found,such as postoperative bleeding,anorectal stenosis and fecal incontinence.Recurrence rate was 4.55 ％ within a year follow-up.Conclusions Tissue-Selecting Therapy stapler for internal hemorrhoids is a simple and safe procedure with less intraoperative and postoperative bleeding,low recurrence rate,fewer postoperative complications and so on.It's worthy of clinic application.
