1.1. Objective: To analyze prospectively a series of 300 cases of hemorrhoidal disease managed with transanal hemorrhoidal dearterialization guided by Doppler ultrasound (THD) 1.2. Material and Methods: During the months of May 2011 to June 2019 a total of 300 patients were included with an average age of 43 years, (3%) were diagnosed with hemorrhoidal disease grade II, grade III (15%), grade IV (10%) and mixed hemorrhoidal disease (72%), predominantly male (57%), which were treated with THD; surgical time, intensity of postoperative pain, recurrence, recovery time and time of return to work were analyzed. 1.3.
