[Open hemorrhoidectomy with using the apparatus controlled bipolar electrocoagulation]
Abstract
Hemorrhoids are known to be a widely spread disease. The aim of this study was to compare two methods of hemorrhoidectomy. The hemorrhoidectomy was performed on 262 patients with combined III-IV degree hemorrhoids, 130 patients being operated by the conventional method--Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy, 132 patients undergoing hemorrhoidectomy using a bipolar vessel sealing system. It was noted that the operation time was significantly shorter, postoperative pain and postoperative complications less frequent due to the bipolar device-controlled electrocoagulation.
