Hemorrhoidectomy

About the Treatment

Hemorrhoidectomy is the surgical removal of hemorrhoidal tissue, indicated for grade III and IV hemorrhoids, large mixed hemorrhoids, recurrent thrombosis, or when office-based treatments have not been enough. It is the treatment with the lowest long-term recurrence rate. Different techniques exist, such as conventional hemorrhoidectomy (open or closed) and stapled or energy-based techniques, and the choice depends on the type and grade of the hemorrhoids. The surgery is performed in a hospital setting, under anesthesia, generally with discharge on the same day or the next. At Femi Saúde, the coloproctology team plans the surgery individually, guides preparation and manages the post-operative period with attention to pain control and bowel function.
