“…These results are comparable to 66% to 82% cure rate reported by others (9,12,16,17) The most significant difference found between these two groups was postoperative pain. During the first postoperative week the differences in pain reported were statistically significant between the two groups.…”

“…Now it is the procedure of choice for patients who did not respond to office-based procedures or who unable to tolerate these procedures, grade three or four hemorrhoids, or patients with substantial external skin tags (5). Rubber band ligation is also widely used because it is a safe and effective method, involves less postoperative pain, and causes a quick recovery (9,(11)(12)(13). Complications are mostly minor.…”

“…Tais mé-todos não cirúrgicos induzem a uma fibrose tecidual com posterior fixação do coxim hemorroidário. Também incluída nesse último grupo está a técnica da ligadura elástica (LE) 1,2 . A técnica da LE foi primeiro descrita por Blaisdell (1958), mas só tornou-se popular após Barron (1964), em Detroit, aperfeiçoá-la com um aparelho modificado.…”

BackgroundHemorrhoidectomy is considered as the most effective approach for patients with grade III and grade IV hemorrhoids; the operative procedure may be associated with significant postoperative pain and other complications. Several surgical techniques and devices have been developed to overcome these postoperative problems.ObjectiveTo compare perioperative and postoperative outcomes of hemorrhoidectomy performed with the LigaSure and the conventional Milligan–Morgan hemorrhoidectomy among Nigerian patients with symptomatic hemorrhoids.MethodologyAll consenting adult patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were randomized to either conventional Milligan–Morgan or LigaSure hemorrhoidectomy. Outcome measures were the duration of the procedure, estimated blood loss, and resolution of symptoms, which were assessed using the Sodergren hemorrhoids severity score (SHSS). Postoperative pain was evaluated using the visual analog scale (VAS), and the short‐term recurrence rate was also checked at 3 months.Data were analyzed using the computer software IBM SPSS version 23.ResultsFifty‐two patients were randomized equally into the two arms. The median blood loss in the LigaSure group was 10.0 mL, whereas the median blood loss in the Milligan–Morgan group was 26.5 mL, (p = 0.0001). The median postoperative pain at 2 weeks using the VAS was 5.5 in the LigaSure group, and in the Milligan–Morgan group, it was 6.0 (p = 0.002). The mean duration of surgery in the LigaSure group was 18.04 min and 34.19 min in the Milligan–Morgan group (p = 0.0001).ConclusionLigaSure hemorrhoidectomy is faster and associated with less blood loss compared to conventional Milligan–Morgan hemorrhoidectomy.
