Purpose: We present 12-month followup results of functional evaluation and safety assessment of a modification of hemorrhoidal artery ligation (DGHAL) called Recto-Anal-Repair (RAR) in treatment of advanced hemorrhoidal disease (HD).Methods: Patients with grade III and IV HD underwent the RAR procedure (DGHAL combined with restoration of prolapsed hemorrhoids to their anatomical position with longitudinal sutures). Each patient had rectal examination, anorectal manometry, and QoL questionnaire performed before 3 months, and 12 months after RAR procedure.Results: 20 patients completed 12-month followup. There were no major complications. 3 months after RAR, 5 cases of residual mucosal prolapse were detected (25%), while only 3 patients (15%) reported persistence of symptoms. 12 months after RAR, another 3 HD recurrences were detected, to a total of 8 patients (40%) with HD recurrence. Anal pressures after RAR were significantly lower than before (P<0.05), and the effect was persistent 12 months after RAR. One patient (5%) reported occasional soiling 3 months after RAR.Conclusions: RAR seems to be a safe method of treatment of advanced HD with no major complications. The procedure has a significant influence on anal pressures, with no evidence of risk of fecal incontinence after the operation.

Doppler-guided hemorrhoidal artery ligation (DGHAL) is a nonexcisional surgical technique for the treatment of hemorrhoidal disease, consisting of the ligation of the distal branches of the superior rectal artery, resulting in a reduction of blood flow and decongestion of hemorrhoidal plexus resulting in fibrosis. The aim of the study was to assess the efficacy and safety of DGHAL, define its indications, and identify its possible advantages and limitations for the treatment of second- and third-degree hemorrhoids. The procedure was performed using a specially designed proctoscope. The Doppler probe was used to locate all the terminal branches of hemorrhoidal arteries, which were then sutured. Patients were followed up for 2 years. From November 2006 to May 2009, 50 patients (29 female, mean age 38.2 years) underwent this procedure. The procedure was performed under local anesthesia. An average of five ligatures was placed. Average length of hospital stay was 2 hours and return to work was 2.5 days. The mean postoperative pain score was 1.72. There were no intra- or immediate postoperative major complications. In 44 patients (88%), surgery resolved the symptoms completely in a 2-year follow-up period. DGHAL is a safe and effective procedure. DGHAL can be the choice for second- and third-degree hemorrhoids with minimal postoperative pain and quick recovery.
