Improvement of wound healing after hemorrhoidectomy: a double-blind, randomized study of botulinum toxin injection.
2005
PURPOSE: Hemorrhoidectomy is usually associated with significant pain during the postoperative period. The spasm of the internal sphincter seems to play in important role in the origin of pain. This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of intrasphincter injection of botulinum toxin after hemaorrhoidectomy in reducing the maximum testing pressure of the anal canal, accelerating wound healing, and decreasing postoperative pain when resting and during defecation. METHODS: Thirty patients with hemorrhoids of third and fourth degree were included in the study and randomized in two groups. Anorectal manometry was performed preoperatively and 5 and 30 days afterward ill all patients un…

Transanal hemorrhoidal dearterialization versus Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy in grade III/IV hemorrhoids.
2019
La terapia delle emorroidi di III e IV si basa sul trattamento chirurgico. All’emorroidectomia secondo Milligan Morgan (MM), da molti chirurghi considerata il gold standard, si affiancano attualmente metodi chirurgici considerati meno invasivi come la Procedura per Prolasso ed Emorroidi (PPH) e la dearterializzazione emorroidaria transanale (THD). Gli Autori hanno voluto confrontare in un trial prospettico e randomizzato la emorroidectomia secondo MM e la THD nel trattamento di emorroidi di III e IV grado valutandone i risultati a breve e medio termine. Materiali e metodi: Tra gennaio 2010 e marzo 2013 sono stati reclutati 87 pazienti con emorroidi di III e IV grado secondo la classificazio…
Outpatient management of proctologic disease. Which techniques for local anesthesia? The experience of a single center
2019
Introduction. Since 1899 outpatient management of surgical patients had been increasing, becoming the best option when possible. In 1988 was described the first experience of outpatient management of proctologic disease. Advances in local anesthesia techniques have improved the outpatient approach to surgical disease, particularly in patients with proctological diseases. Methods. From 2010 to 2016, 1160 patients who needed surgery for proctologic disease have been recruited: 239 hemorrhoidectomies using the variant of Milligan Morgan technique described by Phillips, 45 trans-anal hemorrhoidal DE-arterialization (THD), 315 sphincterotomies, 12 anal polypectomies, 230 loop seton positions, 65…
I MOMENTI STORICI DI UNA FREQUENTE PATOLOGIA ANALE: LE EMORROIDI
2004
In this report the authors outline the main historical aspects of haemorrhoids after a thorough review of the literature. The first texts concerning haemorrhoids are the ancient Egyptian papyruses. The twenty centuries of the history of haemorrhoids are marked by multiple pathogenetic theories, and of these the vascular and the sliding of the anal mucosa are still valid. From an analysis of the historical texts and the most recent publications, we deduce that the principles of therapy are substantially unchanged since the days of Hippocrates. In conclusion, we can say that, as in ancient times, the therapy of haemorrhoids is based on three fundamental approaches: surgical treatment, ambulat…
Evaluation and management of hemorrhoids: Italian society of colorectal surgery (SICCR) consensus statement
2015
Hemorrhoids are one of the most common medical and surgical diseases and the main reason for a visit to a coloproctologist. This consensus statement was drawn up by the Italian society of colorectal surgery in order to provide practice parameters for an accurate assessment of the disease and consequent appropriate treatment. The authors made a careful search in the main databases (MEDLINE, PubMed, Embase and Cochrane), and all results were classified on the basis of the grade of recommendation (A-C) of the American College of Chest Physicians.
Internal sphincterotomy reduces postoperative pain after Milligan Morgan haemorrhoidectomy
2009
Abstract Background Over the last few years, there has been increasing attention on surgical procedures to treat haemorrhoids. The Milligan-Morgan haemorrhoidectomy is still one of the most popular surgical treatments of haemorrhoids. The aim of the present work is to assess postoperative pain, together with other early and late complications, after Milligan-Morgan haemorrhoidectomy as we could observe in our experience before and after performing an internal sphincterotomy. Methods from January 1980 to May 2007, we operated 850 patients, but only 699 patients (median age 53) were included in the present study because they satisfied our inclusion criteria. The patients were divided into two…
Botulinum toxin vs. topical glyceryl trinitrate ointment for pain control in patients undergoing hemorrhoidectomy: a randomized trial.
2007
PURPOSE: The maximum resting pressure in the anal canal is greatly raised after hemorrhoidectomy. This increase is likely to be the cause of postoperative pain, which is still the most troublesome early problem after hemorrhoidectomy. This study was designed to compare, after hemorrhoidectomy, the effects of intrasphincter injection of botulinum toxin vs. application of glyceryl trinitrate ointment in improving wound heating and reducing postoperative pain at rest or during defecation. METHODS: Thirty patients with hemorrhoids of third and fourth degree were included in the study and randomized in two groups. Anorectal manometry was performed preoperatively and 5 and 40 days after hemorrhoi…
A painless treatment undergoing Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy
2004
Background: Postoperative pain associated with Milligan Morgan haemorrhoidectomy (MMIf) remains problematic. Most patients complaint a severe pain on defecation and in the 1st postoperative week because of secondary infection a fid sphincter spasm. We studied the effect of metronida zole, lactulose and glyceryl-trinitrate on pain after MMH. Method: Thirty patients were randomly assigned to two groups. The 1st received a treatment with oral laxative (lac- tulose 66,7%) metronidazole and a topical glyceryl-trinitrate ointment at 0,2% both pre and postoperative; the 2nd received a placebo at the same dosage. The amount of pain in the 1st week and at the time of two defecation, postoperative an…
Colour doppler-guided haemorrhoidal artery ligation: A possible evolution of transanal haemorrhoidal dearterialisation
2021
Introduction. Haemorrhoids are a very common disease, with a great economic burden. Many treatments have been developed for trying to solve the problem, being the standard not yet found. In 1995, Doppler-guided haemorrhoidal artery ligation was introduced, aiming to reduce postoperative pain and complications. In this work, an evolution of the aforementioned surgical technique was described. Materials and Methods.183 patients treated with standard Doppler-Guided Haemorrhoidal Artery Ligation were statistically compared with 225 patients dealt with Colour Doppler-Guided Haemorrhoidal Artery Ligation. The procedures were performed under local anaesthesia with patients in lithotomy position. A…
