[Surgical techniques and long-term results for hemorrhoids from the clinical viewpoint].
The decongestion of the hemorrhoidal cushion is the main principle in treating piles. This is achieved with a diet high in roughage. Although severe hemorrhoids are not cured by buld-forming agents, they are of central importance to prevent recurrences. Hemorrhoidectomy should be performed mainly in cases of hemorrhoidal prolapse. Results of the three most often used techniques (Milligan-Morgan, Parks, Ferguson) are more or less comparable, although the presentation of the details in the literature is contradictionary. Each surgeon should use the technique that suits him best. We prefer the closed operation described by Ferguson.
