Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Improvement in Short Health Scale-HD score at 1 year after hemorrhoidal surgery

    Changes in quality of life from baseline at 1 year in terms of Short Health Scale (SHS) specific to hemorrhoidal disease (HD) will be reported for each surgical treatment. The SHS-HD scores will be recorded preoperatively, at 1 week, 6 weeks, and 12 months.

    1 year

  • Hemorrhoidal Disease Symptom Score at 1 year after hemorrhoidal surgery

    Changes in symptoms from baseline at 1 year will be reported for each surgical treatment. Hemorrhoidal Disease Symptom Score (HDSS) described by Nyström based on 5 cardinal symptoms (pain, itching, bleeding, soiling, and prolapse) will be recorded preoperatively, at 1 week, 6 weeks, and 12 months.

    1 year

  • Recurrence

    1 year

  • Complications
