About Stapler Hemorrhoidectomy

A stapler hemorrhoidectomy, also known as a Procedure for Prolapse and Hemorrhoids (PPH), is a modern surgical technique performed by general surgeons to treat advanced internal hemorrhoids. This minimally invasive procedure uses a specialized circular stapling device to remove a ring of excess tissue above the hemorrhoids, cutting off their blood supply and pulling them back into their normal position within the anal canal. Compared to traditional hemorrhoidectomy, it typically involves less post-operative pain, a shorter recovery period, and reduced bleeding. It is primarily indicated for patients with grade III or IV prolapsing hemorrhoids that have not responded to conservative treatments like dietary changes or rubber band ligation.

Key Highlights

    Minimally invasive technique with smaller external incisions.Generally associated with less post-operative pain compared to traditional surgery.Shorter procedure time and often performed as a day surgery.Faster return to normal activities and work.Reduces prolapse by repositioning tissue rather than extensive removal.Lower risk of significant bleeding during the procedure./ul

PATIENT REVIEW

I was a total wreck before...

I was a total wreck before my appointment. First time seeing a doctor on my own and I was convinced it was something serious. Dr. Ram just listened, didn't rush me, and explained everything in a way that actually calmed me down. The hospital is huge and a bit overwhelming, but he made it feel okay. Left feeling like I could breathe again.
