title: [Operations for hemorrhoids: indications and techniques].
abstract: Haemorrhoidal disease is one of the most common diseases in general and will in most cases progress without therapy. In the therapeutic context the means of choice are conservative therapies and in the advanced stage of the disease operative measures are necessary. In Germany 40,000-50,000 operations are performed each year. Our aim with the currently available various operation techniques is individualized therapy and indications. Thus a high healing rate, low complication rate and high patient satisfaction can be achieved.
