Background: Hemorrhoids are usually managed by surgical hemorrhoidectomy which is associated with postoperative pain, long hospital stay and a longer convalescence. Stapled hemorrhoidopexy is a newer alternative for the treatment of hemorrhoids. In this study, the two methods were compared for short term outcomes.Methods: Hundred patients having grade 3 or 4 hemorrhoids and who fulfilled the criteria were included in the study from June 2012 to May 2014. Fifty patients underwent stapled hemorrhoidopexy and other fifty underwent open hemorrhoidectomy. All patients were reviewed immediately after surgery and at 1, 3, 6 weeks and 6 months post-operatively. The two groups were compared for duration of surgery, hospital stay, return to work and post-operative complications.Results: The mean (S.D.) age was 40.06 (10.33) in our study. The majority of patients in the study were males and had grade 4 haemorrhoids. Stapled hemorrhoidopexy group had shorter duration of surgery, less postoperative pain and need for analgesia, shorter duration of hospital stay and earlier return to work and a high patient satisfaction as compared with open hemorrhoidectomy group. There were no major post-operative complications, recurrence, residual prolapse or incontinence in the follow up period of six months in the stapled group.Conclusions: Stapled hemorrhoidopexy is a safer alternative to open hemorrhoidectomy with many short-term benefits.

Background: Surgical hemorrhoidectomy is usual method for management in hemorrhoid grade III and IV. It is generally associated with postoperative pain, long hospital stay and a longer convalescence. Stapled hemorrhoidopexy is a newer minimally invasive alternative for the treatment of hemorrhoids. Aims: In this study, the above two methods were compared with respect to short term outcomes. Settings and Design: This was a prospective and randomized study. Methods: 60 patients having grade 3 or 4 hemorrhoids and who fullled the criteria were included in the study. Thirty patients underwent stapled hemorrhoidopexy and other thirty underwent open hemorrhoidectomy. All patients were reviewed immediately after surgery and at 1, 3 and6 weeks post-operatively. The two groups were compared in terms of duration of surgery, hospital stay, return to work and post-operative level of satisfaction . Statistical Analysis: The statistical analysis was done using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) Version 15.0 statistical Analysis Software. Signicance was assessed at 5% level of signicance. Student t-test was used to nd the signicance of study parameters on continuous scale in parametric condition between two groups (inter group analysis) and Mann Whitney U test was used to nd the signicance of study parameters on continuous scale in non-parametric condition within each group. Chi-square/ Fisher Exact test were used to nd the signicance of study parameters on categorical scale between two groups. Results: The overall mean age of patients in our study was 41.35 ± 12.80. The majority of patients in the study were males (78.3%) and had grade 3 haemorrhoids (93.3%). Stapled hemorrhoidopexy group had shorter duration of surgery, less postoperative pain and need for analgesia, shorter duration of hospital stay and earlier return to work and a high patient satisfaction as compared with open hemorrhoidectomy group. Conclusions: Stapled hemorrhoidopexy is a minimally invasive, better and safer alternative to open hemorrhoidectomy with many short-term benets.

Background: Haemorrhoids are the most common benign anorectal problems worldwide. Treatments of third and fourth degree hemorrhoids include surgical haemorrhoidectomy. Milligan Morgan haemorrhoidectomy (MMH) as described in 1937 has remained the most popular among many techniques proposed. In order to avoid the postoperative drawbacks of Milligan Morgan haemorrhoidectomy, a new surgical treatment for prolapsing haemorrhoids has been described by Longo in 1995, procedure called stapled haemorrhoidopexy which is associated with less postoperative pain and a quicker recovery. The objective of this study was to compare the short-term outcome between stapled hemorrhoidopexy and Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy.Methods: Prospective randomized study of 120 patients with grade 3 and grade 4 haemorrhoids requiring surgical treatment either MMH or SH, 60 in each group for the period of 18 months from June 2014 to November 2015. Post-operative pain, duration of surgery, duration of hospital stays, post-operative complications and time taken to return to work were compared with mean follow up period of 6 months.Results: Duration of surgery is significantly low in stapled group with P <0.001, duration of hospital stay is significantly low in stapled group with P <0.001, post-operative pain low in staple group with P <0.05, time taken to return to work is significantly early in stapled group with P <0.001. Post-operative complications incontinence not found in the present study but recurrence of two cases in each group noted.Conclusion: Stapled hemorrhoidopexy is associated with less postoperative pain, shorter duration of surgery and hospital stay, earlier return to work as compared with Milligan-Morgan open hemorrhoidectomy. The procedure is not associated with major post-operative complications.

OBJECTIVE Historically, bilateral frontoorbital advancement (FOA) has been the keystone for treatment of turribrachycephaly caused by bilateral coronal synostosis. Early endoscopic suturectomy has become a popular technique for treatment of single-suture synostosis, with acceptable results and minimal perioperative morbidity. Boston Children's Hospital has adopted this method of treating early-presenting cases of bilateral coronal synostosis. METHODS A retrospective review of patients with bilateral coronal craniosynostosis who were treated with endoscopic suturectomy between 2005 and 2012 was completed. Patients were operated on between 1 and 4 months of age. Hospital records were reviewed for perioperative morbidity, length of stay, head circumference and cephalic indices, and the need for further surgery. RESULTS Eighteen patients were identified, 8 males and 10 females, with a mean age at surgery of 2.6 months (range 1–4 months). Nine patients had syndromic craniosynostosis. The mean duration of surgery was 73.3 minutes (range 50–93 minutes). The mean blood loss was 40 ml (range 20–100 ml), and 2 patients needed a blood transfusion. The mean duration of hospital stay was 1.2 days (range 1–2 days). There was 1 major complication in the form of a CSF leak. The mean follow-up was 37 months (range 6–102 months). Eleven percent of nonsyndromic patients required a subsequent FOA; 55.6% of syndromic patients underwent FOA. The head circumference percentiles and cephalic indices improved significantly. CONCLUSIONS Early endoscopic suturectomy successfully treats the majority of patients with bilateral coronal synostosis, and affords a short procedure time, a brief hospital stay, and an expedited recovery. Close follow-up is needed to detect patients who will require a secondary FOA due to progressive suture fusion or resynostosis of the released coronal sutures.

Aim. This study aims to compare the early and late outcomes of transanal hemorrhoidal dearterialization (THD) versus stapled hemorrhoidopexy (SH) for the treatment of hemorrhoidal disease. Methods. From January 2013 to December 2014, 100 patients—50 patients on each arm—were randomly allocated to THD or SH groups. The inclusion criteria were grade III and IV hemorrhoids diagnosed by clinical examination and proctoscopy. The primary outcome was to compare the recurrence rate with a minimum follow-up of 2 years, and the secondary outcome was to compare complications rate, time to return to work postsurgery, procedure length, and patient’s satisfaction between the 2 techniques. Results. The mean follow-up period was 33.7 ± 7.6. The recurrence rate was 4% in the SH group and 16% in the THD group ( P = .04). There was no difference in the intraoperative and postoperative complications rate; the pain score was significantly higher in the THD group. The mean operative time was significantly shorter in the SH group compared with the THD group. Patients in the THD group returned to work or routine activities significantly later compared with patients in the SH group. The overall satisfaction rate was also higher in the SH group. Conclusion. Both procedures are simple and easy to perform for the treatment of grade III and IV hemorrhoids. SH showed better results in terms of lower rate of recurrence, lower postoperative pain, quicker return to work, and higher patient satisfaction.

Introduction: Hemorrhoids also called piles. It is vascular structures in the analcanal. In their normal state, they are cushions that help with stool control. They become a disease when swollen or inflamed. the unqualified term "hemorrhoid" is often used to refer to the disease. Material and method: The present study was conducted in the Department of Surgery, Sri Aurobindo Medical College & PG Institute Indore M.P over a duration of one and half years (November 2017 to May 2019). The study was a cross-sectional prospective study and it compares results between Milligan Morgan haemorrhoidectomy and Stapler haemorrhoidopexy for the management of grade 2, 3, and 4 hemorrhoids. Results: In this study, most of the cases were between age group 30-50 [50%] years with the mean age being 43 years. Hemorrhoids more common in males 30 [65%], male: female ratio being 3:1. The most common presentation in hemorrhoids was bleeding per rectum in 47% followed by something coming out per rectum in 43 % & painful defecation in 10 % cases respectively. The duration of surgery was significantly low in the stapler group with meantime being 44.25 compared to open group 63 with the mean difference being 19 mins (P < 0.001). In 17of 21 [85%] whereas in grade IV all 09 [100%] patients had open surgery grade III had mixed options 03/07 [30/70 %] stapler & open respectively. Postoperatively the mean duration of hospital stay in stapler group was 4.15± 1.03 as compared to the open group 6.05 ± 1.84 with the mean difference being 2 days (P<0.001). The duration of recovery was significantly faster in stapler group with the mean hospital stay being 7.55 as compared to the open group 12.45 with mean difference being 5 days(P<0.001). Postoperative bleeding was found in both the groups which eventually subsided completely in stapler group on POD - 7 and only 3[7.5%]. Patients had bleeding on POD – 7 in the open group. (P < 0.001). The findings were statistically significant as suggested by P-Value. Urinary Retention was found in both groups i.e. 5% and 7.5% in stapler and open group respectively. (P= 0.632). Conclusion: The results of this study concluded that Stapler hemorrhoidopexy had lesser operating time, lower duration of hospital stays, and quicker recovery with less postoperative pain & bleeding as compared to Open hemorrhoidectomy. Hence it was concluded that stapler hemorrhoidopexy is a better option as compared to open hemorrhoidectomyfor grade II. grade III, & a few selected cases of grade IV hemorrhoids. patients stapler procedure was choice in grade II haemorrhoids.

Empyema thoracis is defined as the presence of pus in the pleural space or a purulent pleural effusion. Chronic empyema is characterized by thickened visceral and parietal peels, which hamper the ability of the affected lung to re-expand and require definitive surgical intervention. In a resource constraint environment like ours, open thoracotomy and decortication is the treatment of choice. We review our experience with cases of chronic empyema thoracis that had thoracotomy and decortication. This is a descriptive, retrospective, and observational study. Medical records of patients who had thoracotomy and decortication on account of chronic empyema thoracis in the Cardiothoracic surgery unit of our hospital between 2012 and 2020 were retrieved and reviewed. The information obtained from the records included sex, age, premorbid conditions, aetiology of empyema, cultures of pleural fluids, histology results of the cortex removed, duration of chest tube drainage, duration of hospital stay, postoperative complications, and outcome. One hundred and eighty-five patients diagnosed with empyema thoracis were seen in the study period. Sixty-five patients had thoracotomy and decortication on account of chronic empyema thoracis while the remaining 120 (64.9%) had closed tube thoracostomy drain insertion. Male: female was 5:1, mean age at presentation 24.24 years with age ranging from 2 years to 70 years. Fourteen (23.33%) were in the paediatric age group while the remaining (76.67%) were adults. The aetiology of empyema was pneumonia in 36 (60%). Strept pneumoniae was the commonest organism isolated from pleural fluids of these patients accounting for 23.33%. All patients underwent thoracotomy and decortication. The mean duration before surgery was 17 days with a range of 2 days to 40 days. The average duration of surgery was 2 hours. Chest tube was removed after an average of 7 days (range 5 to 33 days. Twenty-one patients (35%) had complications. The average duration of drainage was 18.87 days and that of hospital stay was 36.74 days. There were 3 mortalities (5%). The mean duration of follow-up was 3 months. Chronic empyema thoracis is still common in our environment and presentation is usually very late. In our series, open thoracotomy and decortication was found to be an excellent procedure with low morbidity and mortality. The majority of our patients had good functional outcome with few complications.

A Prospective Study

Background: Haemorrhoids are usually managed by open haemorrhoidectomy which is associated with postoperative pain, prolong hospital stay, longer convalescence and late return to normal activities. Stapled haemorrhoidopexy is a newer alternative for the treatment of haemorrhoid. The present study was designed to evaluate this technique in terms of duration of surgery & hospital stay, complications, convalescence, time return to normal activities, cost effectiveness and patient’s satisfaction. Materials and methods: One hundred and sixty patients of either sex who fulfilled the criteria were included in this study. More than 90% of the patients were in grade 3 & 4. All data were prospectively collected and examined. The patients were evaluated in terms of demographic properties, complaints on admission and postoperative complication. Results: 69.4% were male and 30.6% were female. Mean age was 40.93 years. Grade 3 haemorrhoid was present in 73.75% cases, Grade 4 was 18.12% cases, Grade 1 and Grade 2 were in 8.13% cases. The mean duration of surgery was 30 minutes. The mean duration of hospitalization was 36 hours. Intraoperative bleeding was observed in 9.38% patients. Reactionary haemorrhage was seen in 3.75% patients. Postoperative mild pain in 3.12% patients and residual prolapse in 1.25% cases. Conclusion: Stapled haemorrhoidopexy is safer alternative to open haemorrhoidotectomy with many short and long term benefits. J Bangladesh Coll Phys Surg 2020; 38(3): 126-134
