Aim: To compare Transanal suture rectopexy with Open hemorrhoidectomy in patients of hemorrhoids.
MATERIALS AND METHOD: After obtaining institutional ethics committee clearance, a prospective
comparative study was done involving 60 patients with hemorrhoids undergoing either Transanal suture rectopexy [TR] or Open
hemorrhoidectomy [OH]. With simple random sampling, the patients who t into the criteria was randomized in to two groups A
for Transanal suture rectopexy and group B Open hemorrhoidectomy Both the procedures were compared RESULTS: with
respect to mean operating time, intra-operative & post-operative bleeding, postoperative pain & use of analgesia, duration of
hospital stay along with six months of post operative complications in which we observed that Transanal suture rectopexy is
better in terms of intraoperative bleeding, postoperative pain, duration of hospital stay and postoperative recurrence as
compared to Open hemorrhoidectomy. Suture hemorrhoidopexy can be considered as a safe alternative CONCLUSIONS:
approach for surgical treatment of hemorrhoids than open hemorrhoidectomy after adequate training. More studies are needed
to declare it as a standard procedure for the cure of the disease of hemorrhoids
