Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Incidence of procedure related mortality (safety)

    The mortality rate among the patients during 12 months related with interventional procedure.

    12 month

  • Incidence of procedure related complications (safety)

    The morbidity rate among the patients during 12 months related with interventional procedure.

    12 month

  • Incidence of the patients' being free of symptoms from hemorrhoidal disease (efficacy)

    The efficacy and clinical success of the procedure will be evaluated

    12 month

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Technical success

    On the day of intervention

  • Recurrence

    3-6-12. months

Study Arms (2)

Embospheres 500-700 microns

EXPERIMENTAL

Intervention.Embolization with 500-700 micron particles will be performed with 1 ml vials. Embolization procedure will be continued with vials until the stasis in SRAE will be achieved. Procedure will be performed only one time.

Device: Embolization with tri-acryl gelatin (Embosphere) particles

Embospheres 700-900 microns

EXPERIMENTAL

Intervention.Embolization with 700-900 micron particles will be performed with 1 ml vials. Embolization procedure will be continued with vials until the stasis in SRAE will be achieved. Procedure will be performed only one time.

Device: Embolization with tri-acryl gelatin (Embosphere) particles

Interventions

Left, right and posterior branches of superior rectal artery will be embolized with tri-acryl gelatin particles in 500-700 and 700-900 micrometers in size until homeostasis will be achieved.

Also known as: Embosphere
Embospheres 500-700 micronsEmbospheres 700-900 microns
