Brief Summary
Abstract: Introduction: Pile excision is frequently associated with post-operative pain and prolong hospital stay. A modern technique performed with LigaSure appears to be mainly effective in large pile tissue removal is required. The study compares LigaSure pile excision with diathermy for the treatment of III-IV degree pile. Patients and Methods: 208 patients with pile III or IV degree randomized into 2 groups. Group one LigaSure and group two diathermy. The study evaluates the mean post-operative time, post-operative pain, discharge date, time return to usual works early and late complication. All patient followed-up for range (12-24) months. Results: 108patient treated by diathermy, 100 by LigaSure. The mean operative time significantly shorter in LigaSure, post-operative pain disappears earlier in LigaSure than diathermy. The time return to work less in LigaSure, while no difference in hospital stay and post-operative complications. Conclusions: LigaSure is effective procedure when large degree III or VI pile excised. The procedure enhances to use LigaSure as treatments of choice for class III-IV pile, even it is more expensive than diathermy operation.
