Brief Summary

This study adopted a multicenter, non-randomized controlled clinical research design. Patients with internal hemorrhoids who met the inclusion criteria were assigned to the endoscopic rubber band ligation group (observation group) or the Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy group (control group) according to their treatment preferences. Doctors who were unaware of the clinical data information evaluated the patients' postoperative recovery, the occurrence of complications, and the long-term follow-up of treatment efficacy through outpatient reexaminations, WeChat video calls, or telephone calls. Research Subjects and Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria 1.1 Research Subjects Patients with grade II-III internal hemorrhoids 1.2 Inclusion Criteria

  1. 1.Patients diagnosed with grade II-III internal hemorrhoids according to the Goligher classification;
  2. 2.Aged between 18 and 80 years old, both males and females;
  3. 3.Those who did not respond well to conservative treatments such as dietary adjustments and medications;
  4. 4.Patients who signed the informed consent form and were willing to cooperate with this study.
  5. 5.Patients with contraindications to colonoscopy;
  6. 6.Patients with concurrent anorectal diseases such as anal fissure, anal fistula, thrombosed hemorrhoids, perianal abscess, etc., or a history of previous anorectal surgery;
  7. 7.Pregnant patients;
  8. 8.Patients with concurrent intestinal infections, inflammatory bowel diseases, or colorectal malignancies;
  9. 9.Patients with severe heart, liver, or kidney diseases and coagulation disorders;
  10. 10.Patients with diabetes mellitus and poor blood glucose control;
  11. 11.Patients with missing clinical data, poor follow-up compliance, or those suffering from mental illnesses and communication disorders;
