Comparison between Haemorrhoidectomy by Ligasure and conventional surgery
- Detailed Description
Hemorrhoids, a varicose condition are one of the commonest illnesses which causes per rectal bleeding . Hemorrhoidectomy is the standard operation for grades III and IV hemorrhoids; it is superior to any proposed conservative procedure. Conventional haemorrhoidectomy is the open surgical procedure in which the haemorrhoid pedicle is ligated by a transfixing suture which may lead to some postoperative complications mostly pain, bleeding and wound infection which ultimately cause prolonged stay in hospital.
A number of surgeons believe that by avoiding vascular pedicle ligation the chances of secondary bleeding can be decreased .This stimulated the researchers to develop new techniques with a less severe course and faster recovery . Recent advances in instrumental technology including the bipolar electrothermal device, ultrasonic scalpel, and circular stapler are gaining popularity as effective alternatives in hemorrhoidectomy . Of these instruments, the LigaSure vessel sealing system has been recently introduced as a tool conceived to upgrade the conventional treatment of haemorrhoids. This reduces anal spasm and allows performing a bloodless haemorrhoidectomy with reduced post- operative pain and fast healing . .Thus this operation can be recommended as the ideal technique. Many trials were performed to compare LigaSure hemorrhoidectomy with conventional hemorrhoidectomy, although an overall favorable trend exists toward LigaSure, conclusions are not univocal and definitive; this creates some uncertainty, also considering the increasing cost for this disposable device: thus it is essential to keep on experimenting to determine whenever an actual advantage exists.
