Randomized Controlled Trial of LigaSure with Submucosal Dissection versus Ferguson Hemorrhoidectomy for Prolapsed Hemorrhoids

Abstract

LigaSure hemorrhoidectomy with submucosal dissection is a safe, effective procedure for grade III and IV hemorrhoids. Patients derive greater short-term benefits: reduced intraoperative blood loss, operating time, and postoperative pain as well as earlier resumption of work or normal activity. Long-term follow-up with a larger number of patients is required to confirm the long-term results of this procedure.
