Hemorrhoidectomy is surgery to remove hemorrhoids. You will be given general anesthesia or spinal anesthesiaso that you will not feel pain. Incisions are made in the tissue around the hemorrhoid.
The swollen vein inside the hemorrhoid is tied off to prevent bleeding, and the hemorrhoid is removed. The surgical area may be sewn closed or left open.
Medicated gauze covers the wound. Surgery can be done with a knife (scalpel), a tool that uses electricity (cautery pencil), or a laser. The operation is usually done in a surgery center. You will most likely go home the same day (outpatient). There is a procedure that uses a circular stapling device to remove hemorrhoidal tissue and close the wound.
No incision is made. In this procedure, the hemorrhoid is lifted and then "stapled" back into place in the anal canal. This surgery is called stapled hemorrhoidopexy. People who have stapled surgery may have less pain after surgery than people who have the traditional hemorrhoid surgery. But the stapled surgery is more expensive. And people who have stapled surgery are more likely to have hemorrhoids come back and need surgery again.
Doppler-guided hemorrhoidectomy is a procedure that uses a scope with a special probe to locate the hemorrhoidal arteries so that less tissue is removed. Some studies show that it is less painful but more long term studies are needed to compare it with other procedures.
