ObjectiveTo observe the therapeutic efficacy of ultrasonic scalpel flap-retentiong surgery combined with automatic hemorrhoid ligation for the treatment of four degree mixed hemorrhoids. MethodsThe patients with four degree mixed hemorrhoids admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2023 to June 2023 were included as the study subjects, then were randomly averagely divided into an observation group (underwent ultrasonic scalpel flap-retentiong surgery combined with automatic hemorrhoid ligation) and a control group (underwent Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy) by a random number table method. The therapeutic efficacy, total hospitalization time, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, wound healing time, hospitalization costs, postoperative pain score, bleeding score, wound edema score, postoperative complications (anal stenosis, urinary retention, anal incontinence), and recurrence were compared between the two groups. ResultsA total of 100 patients with four degree mixed hemorrhoids treated in this hospital were included, with 50 patients in each group. There were no statistically significant differences in the general information such as the gender, age, disease course, body mass index, hematochezia, and tumor prolapse between the two groups (P>0.05). ① The overall therapeutic efficacy both the observation group and the control group was well (100% versus 96.0%, Fisher exact test, P=0.495). ② The observation group had less total hospitalization time, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospitalization costs, and wound healing time as compared with the control group (P<0.05). ③ The differences in the interaction effects of the time-group for the points of postoperative pain, bleeding, and wound edema were not statistically significant (χ2=6.668, P=0.083; χ2=5.500, P=0.139; χ2=6.204, P=0.102). However, the main effects of group (χ2=5.073, P=0.024; χ2=7.107, P=0.008; χ2=8.857, P=0.003) and time (χ2=188.526, P<0.001; χ2=212.472, P<0.001; χ2=185.110, P<0.001) showed statistically significant differences. The points of postoperative pain, bleeding, and wound edema in the observation group were statistically lower than thoes in the control group (χ2=9.323, P=0.002; χ2=18.133, P<0.001; χ2=6.232, P=0.013). ④ The incidences of postoperative urinary retention and anal stenosis in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P=0.046 and 0.031, respectively), there were no statistically significant differences in the incidences of incontinence and postoperative recurrence between the two groups (P>0.05). ConclusionFrom the preliminary research results of this study, ultrasonic scalpel flap-retentiong surgery in combination with automatic hemorrhoid ligation has a better efficacy in treating four degree mixed hemorrhoids, with a smaller wound, faster healing, higher safety, and fewer complications.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety of shearing fracture ligation combining procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids （PPH） in treatment for mixed hemorrhoids via a multicenter clinical study. MethodsTwo hundred and fortysix patients with mixed hemorroids were included from four a level of firstclass hospitals, which were averagely divided into shearing fracture ligation combining PPH group, PPH group, and shearing fracture ligation group according to the order of admission. The occurrence status of rectovaginal fistula, urethrorectal fistula, postoperative bleeding, acute urinary retention, anorectal stenosis, and anal incontinence were observed. And the anal function was evaluated by the anorectal pressure measurement. ResultsNo rectovaginal fistula or urethrorectal fistula happened among three groups. No anorectal stenosis happened in the shearing fracture ligation combining PPH group or the PPH group. The score of anorectal stenosis and anal incontinence in these two groups were lower than those in the shearing fracture ligation group (Plt;0.05). The rate of postoperative bleeding in the shearing fracture ligation combining PPH group was lower than that in the shearing fracture ligation group (Plt;0.05). There were acute urinary retentions happened among three groups, but without significant differences among them (Pgt;0.05). The anal canal resting pressure after operation was lower than that before operation among three groups (Plt;0.01), which in the shearing fracture ligation combining PPH group was lower than that in the shearing fracture ligation group after operation (Plt;0.05). There were no significant differences of the rectum feeling capacity or maximum rectum capacity between the shearing fracture ligation combining PPH group and PPH group before and after operation (Pgt;0.05), but compared with the level before operation in the shearing fracture ligation group, the rectum feeling capacity obviously decreased after operation (Plt;0.05), the maximum rectum capacity obviously increased (Plt;0.05). There were no significant differences of the maxinum anal canal systolic blood pressure between before and after operation in three groups and among three groups (Pgt;0.05). ConclusionsThe operation of shearing fracture ligation combined with PPH can protect the tissue of rectal cushion, remain the normal anatomy structure of anal canal. It has better clinical effect and is much safer than other methods.
Objective To investigate the clinical curative effect of divided excision and plastic combined with procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (PPH) in treatment for circular mixed hemorrhoids. Methods Clinical observation on 120 patients with circular mixed hemorrhoids between May 2007 and May 2008 treated by divided excision and plastic combined with PPH was carried out. Results The mean hospital stay after operation was 7.6 d. The wound healing average time was 11.9 d. The incidence rate of postoperative urinary retention was 5.8% (7/120). Average scores of pain in 3 d after operation: 5.3 points (1-8 points) on day 1, 3.6 points （2-9 points） on day 2, 2.2 points （1-8 points） on day 3. All patients were followed up for 12 months, there were 3 cases of hematochezia， 1 case of prolapse, and 1 case of remained abnormal outgrowth skin; the anus function was normal in all cases without anal stricture or tightening feeling. Conclusions Divided excision and plastic combined with PPH can better treat circular mixed hemorrhoids. This operation can not only completely clear the lesions, but also repair and reconstruct the anus and anal canal, protect its size and function. It is an ideal operation for treatment for circular mixed hemorrhoids.
Objective To compare the postoperative anorectal pressure after procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (PPH) and Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy (MMH) in treatment of patients with mixed hemorrhoid of Ⅲ-degree. Methods In total of 112 patients with mixed hemorrhoid of Ⅲ-degree who underwent PPH (n=60) or MMH (n=52) in The First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University between March 2014 to March 2015 were prospectively enrolled, the type of surgery was according to patients’ individual choice. In 6 months after operation, all patients under-went the examination of anorectal manometry which including rectal anal inhibitory reflex, rectal resting pressure, anal resting pressure, maximal anal contractive pressure, and anal canal length of high pressure belt. Results In 6 months after operation, the positive rate of rectal anal inhibitory reflex 〔88.3% (53/60) vs. 61.5% (32/52)〕 , anal resting pressure 〔(56.42± 2.25) mm Hg vs. (46.31±2.58) mm Hg〕, and anal canal length of high pressure belt 〔(3.35±0.12) cm vs. (2.29±0.23) cm〕 of PPH group were all significantly higher than those of MMH group (P＜0.05), but there was no statistical significance between PPH group and MMH group in rectal resting pressure 〔(5.51±1.26) mm Hg vs. (5.39±1.85) mm Hg〕 and maximal anal contractive pressure 〔(156.64±9.78) mm Hg vs. (155.32±8.53) mm Hg〕, P>0.05. Conclusion PPH and MMH are all effective to treat mixed hemorrhoids of Ⅲ-degree, but PPH is more positive in protection of anal function.
ObjectiveTo explore the effects of procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (PPH) combined with partial internal anal sphincterotomy (Abbreviation: PPH+sphincterotomy) on postoperative wound margin edema and anal function in patients with severe mixed hemorrhoids.MethodsEighty-five patients with severe mixed hemorrhoids admitted to this hospital from February 2017 to February 2018 were selected as the study subjects, then they were divided into a PPH group (n=42) and PPH+sphincterotomy group (n=43) according to the different treatment methods. The patient in the PPH group was treated with the PPH, while in the PPH+sphincterotomy group was treated with the partial internal anal sphincterotomy on the basis of the PPH group. The clinical efficacy, degree of pain, edema of wound margin, anal function, and the recurrence rate of symptoms were observed in two groups.Results① There were no significant differences in the baseline data such as the gender, age, course of disease, grading of internal hemorrhoids, and symptoms between the two groups (P>0.05). ② The total effective rate of the PPH+sphincterotomy group was significantly higher than that of the PPH group [100% (43/43) versus 90.48% (38/42), χ2=4.297, P=0.038]. ③ The VAS score of the PPH+sphincterotomy group was significantly lower than that of the PPH group on the 3rd and 7th day after the treatment (P<0.05), the VAS score of each group at the 3rd or 7th day after the treatment was significantly lower than that before the treatment (P<0.05), and it was significantly lower on the 7th day than that on the 3rd day after the treatment (P<0.05). ④ The postoperative wound margin edema in the PPH group was more serious than that in PPH+sphincterotomy group (χ2=20.237, P<0.001), and the score in the PPH group was significantly higher than that in the PPH+sphincterotomy group (t=13.514, P<0.001). ⑤ The resting pressure of anal canal after the treatment was significantly lower than that before treatment (P<0.05), and the diastolic pressure of anal canal after the treatment was significantly higher than that before the treatment (P<0.05) in the two groups. The resting pressure of anal canal in the PPH+sphincterotomy group was significantly lower than that in the PPH group and the diastolic pressure of anal canal was significantly higher than that in the PPH group (P<0.05) after the treatment. ⑥ In addition, the total recurrence rate of symptoms at 1 year in the PPH+sphincterotomy group was significantly lower than that of the PPH group [6.98% (3/43) versus 23.81% (10/42), χ2=4.647, P=0.031].ConclusionPPH+sphincterotomy could effectively relieve symptoms of severe mixed hemorrhoids, improve clinical efficacy, and reduce recurrence rate.
ObjectiveTo investigate the curative effect of C-shaped mucosal resection and anastomosis above the dentate line in the treatment of mixed hemorrhoids and its effect on anal function. MethodsA total of 78 patients with degree Ⅳ mixed hemorrhoids treated in Nanjing Liuhe District People’s Hospital from June 2015 to February 2018 were retrospectively collected. The patients were divided into control group (n=39) and observation group (n=39) according to treatment methods. Patients of the control group received traditional procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids operation, while patients of the observation group received C-shaped mucosal resection and anastomosis above the dentate line. The perioperative indexes (operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, etc.), subjective function evaluation indexes (Wexner constipation score, Kirwan grade, etc.), clinical efficacy and recurrence rate were compared between the two groups. The random walking model was used to evaluate the clinical curative effect. ResultsThe intraoperative blood loss [(27.9±3.4) mL vs. (43.2±5.2) mL, P<0.001], 24 h visual analogue scale score [(4.2±1.5) points vs. (5.6±1.5) points, P<0.001], duration of first defecation pain [(22.1±3.2) min vs. (34.2±5.0) min, P<0.001], the time of carrying blood [(4.1±0.4) d vs. (5.7±0.6) d, P<0.001], and the time of edema [(3.2±0.6) d vs. (4.7±0.9) d, P<0.001] in the observation group were shorter (lower) than those in the control group. The difference between pre-and post-operation of Wexner constipation score [(13.2±2.4) points vs. (11.7±2.1) points, P=0.004], resting pressure [(23.1±4.9) mmHg vs. (17.8±3.4) mmHg, P<0.001] and maximum squeeze pressure [(33.5±7.3) mmHg vs. (23.1±5.6) mmHg, P<0.001] in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group. There was a long-term correlation between changes in random fluctuating power rate values of Wexner constipation score, Kirwan grade, rectoanal inhibitory reflex positive rate, resting pressure, maximum squeeze pressure and the surgical procedure received by the patient of the two groups. The total effective rate [97.4% (38/39) vs. 66.7% (26/39)] and non-recurrence rate [92.3% (36/39) vs. 76.9% (29/39)] in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, while there was no significant difference in the incidence of total complications between the two groups [5.1% (2/39) vs. 12.8% (5/39), P=0.235)]. ConclusionCompared with PPH, C-shaped mucosal resection and anastomosis above the dentate line for the treatment of degree Ⅳ mixed hemorrhoids can improve the therapeutic effect, reduce postoperative recurrence, maintain anal function and facilitate the recovery of patients.
