ABSTRACT
Hemorrhoid is among the most common anorectal diseases and patients with high-grade disease conditions need surgical treatment. Many surgical procedures are available to treat the disease. The aim of this study was to compare the operative time and outcomes, [post-operative pain and complications] of Ligasure hemorrhoidectomy with those of the open conventional method. This randomized single-blind clinical trial included 57 patients [28 in Ligasure and 29 in the open group]. The primary variable was the operative time for the excision of a single hemorrhoidal packet. The other variables were post-operative pain measured by morphine doses administered to control pain, scores of visual analogue scale [VAS] used to measure pain severity, pain during home stay measured by doses of oral ibuprofen and the mean daily VAS scores, early complications including bleeding and urinary retention, longer-term complications and time to return to work. The demographic data were comparatively the same between the two groups. The average time to excise a single packet of hemorrhoid was significantly shorter in the Ligasure group [8.91 min vs. 17.35 min, P<0.001]. Post-operative pain measurements [morphine doses and VAS scores] were lower in the Ligasure group, but the differences were not statistically significant [P=0.055 and 0.077, respectively]. Complications of the two procedures were also comparable. Neither of the groups returned to work in a shorter time. Ligasure hemorrhoidectomy seems to be a safe method and it can reduce the operative time significantly. It may also have a modest effect on post-operative pain
