How Hemorrhoidectomy is performed
This procedure is often performed under local, spinal, or general anesthesia. Open or closed techniques can be selected as needed. Typically, hypertrophic or thrombotic external hemorrhoids are excised under direct vision, small feeding blood vessels are ligated, and normal skin and sphincter muscle tissue are preserved. The closed technique may involve moderate suturing of the wound. Postoperatively, the focus is on monitoring bleeding, pain, and urination, guiding bowel movements and wound cleaning, with the goal of relieving symptoms and maintaining anal function. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific details depend on specialist assessment and hospital protocols.
