Abstract

Abstract:In addition to the traditional surgical options for hemorrhoid disease, newer treatment methods are evolving along the principle of reducing the burden on patients and providing similar or better healing. Thermo-based systems achieve the desired effect with less physical destruction. In this paper, we discuss the results of hemorrhoid surgery performed with laser and microwave devices.Patients and methods:We compare the results of 26 operations done with laser fibers and 14 operations using microwave rigid antennas.Results:In both groups, the average complaint-free period developed within 2 weeks, no significant difference was found between the two methods.Discussion:As we are always looking for new methods and surgical solutions, an option we are testing now indicates that thermal treatment can provide a quick and complete cure without the need for complicated safety requirements of laser interventions.
