Stapler hemorrhoidopexy, also known as stapled hemorrhoidectomy or procedure for prolapse of hemorrhoids (PPH), is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to treat hemorrhoids.
It involves using a circular stapling device to remove excess tissue and reposition the hemorrhoidal cushions back into their normal position within the anal canal.
Reduced Pain and Recovery Time:
Stapler hemorrhoidopexy is often favored over traditional hemorrhoidectomy due to its potential for reduced postoperative pain and faster recovery.
By precisely cutting and stapling the tissue, this procedure minimizes trauma to the surrounding area and reduces the risk of complications such as anal stenosis and incontinence.
Considerations and Effectiveness:
While stapler hemorrhoidopexy offers advantages in terms of recovery, it may not be suitable for all cases of hemorrhoids.
Factors such as the size, location, and severity of the hemorrhoids, as well as the patient’s overall health, are taken into consideration when determining the most appropriate treatment approach.
