title: [Stapled hemorrhoidectomy: critical observation on state of art].
abstract: The authors review pros and cons of stapled hemorrhoidectomy (SH). Postoperative primary lower than after hemorrhoidectomy, but no data are available on the long term recurrences in large prospective series. Severe postoperative complications have been reported and SH seems less effective in patients with 4th degree files. SH is a useful technique, provided that proper indication are strictly followed and the procedure is carried out by specialists.
