Laser Hemorrhoidoplasty (LHP)
This new operation procedure developed by us was published first in the
December issue 2007 of the scientific German Coloproctology. The
Hemorrhoidal tissue is removed by a diode laser. Due to the non touch of the
sensitive anal skin, the period after the intervention is poor of pain and
compliants. Especially the complications appearing at the classical
operations like anal narrowing or incontinence (stool hold incapacity), do
not appear at the Laser Hemorrhoidoplasty.
The operation is carried out as an outpatient procedure under regional
anesthesia. A special preparation except an liquid enema to clean up the
bowel ist not necessary. Laboratory results needed for the Anesthesia will
be done of course previously.
During the intervention the hemorrhoidal tissue is cleaned from the inside
and the covering skin and mucous membrane layers are not injured. Prolapsing
tissue (fall out of the piles) is fixed again to its anatomical
position
(mucopexy). After 6 weeks the rectum receives its natural
construction.
After the intervention a pressure feeling can originate in the rectum for a
short time which relief nevertheless quick by warm sitz baths.. For some
days drugs are given and a fiber rich diet is recommended. The everyday life
is not affected
too much, nevertheless the body should be rested for about 1
week. After the operation light secretions and bleedings
can appear, but these
stop after some time by itself again.
