Primary and Repeated Stapled Hemorrhoidopexy for Prolapsing Hemorrhoids: Follow-Up to Five Years

Abstract

The pain after stapled hemorrhoidopexy was low, recovery was rapid, complications were few, and patient satisfaction was high. A recurrent (or persistent) prolapse was alleviated by a repeated stapled hemorrhoidopexy for cure. However, there was a high risk of reintervention after a stapled hemorrhoidopexy, and this should be further evaluated.
