What the procedure involves.
Advanced hemorrhoid treatment options ranging from minimally invasive procedures like PPH (stapled hemorrhoidopexy) and THD (transanal hemorrhoidal dearterialization) to traditional hemorrhoidectomy for severe cases. Chinese colorectal surgery departments offer high-volume expertise with modern techniques that minimize pain and accelerate recovery. Many centers combine Western surgical approaches with traditional Chinese medicine for post-operative healing.
Step by step.
Clinical Assessment
Digital rectal examination, anoscopy, and colonoscopy if needed to classify hemorrhoid grade and rule out other pathology
Procedure Selection
Choose optimal technique based on grade: rubber band ligation for Grade II, PPH/THD for Grade III, or excisional hemorrhoidectomy for Grade IV
Surgical Intervention
Procedure performed under spinal or general anesthesia with chosen technique, hemostasis confirmation, and wound management
Recovery & Follow-up
Pain management, sitz baths, dietary guidance for soft stool maintenance, and wound healing assessment at 1 and 3 weeks
- Multiple minimally invasive options with less post-operative pain
- High-volume surgeons with extensive experience in all techniques
- Significant cost savings versus Western countries
- Integration of TCM sitz bath formulas for faster wound healing
- Post-operative pain especially with traditional hemorrhoidectomy
- Urinary retention in the first 24 hours
- Bleeding during the first 1-2 weeks
