LigaSure or Diathermy Excision of III-IV Degree Pile

Surgery remains the mainstay in patients with symptomatic pile grades III and IV. The usual operation by Milligan-Morgan and Ferguson is still most used and effective for symptomatic grades IV and some of grade III. The two procedures get mimicked, like blood loss and postoperative pain, which cause prolonged hospital stay. Rapid wound healing permits the early return to usual works and day activity . Many articles seek the best treatments of piles published in recent years and modern device the procedures trials to overcome the haemorrhoidectomy complication.: like stapling, laser, doppler-guided vessels ligation with different principles aimed at excisional surgery. The LigaSure system vessels sealed were introduced newly in [6] as a tool for treatments of piles. It is a bipolar electro-thermal device; it offers both radiofrequency and pressure. Blood vessels seal up to 7mm in diameter and create energy according to the tissue impendence and confined 2 mm thermal injury over operation site. The limited thermal injury spread decreases the anal spasm and permits bloodless surgery to decrease postoperative pain and promote rapid healing. So the operation is recommended as an ideal procedure because of the significant less tissue trauma . The objective of some randomized trials to estimate the advantage of the LigaSure approach over the conventional diathermy approaches. in spite of the favourite toward the LigaSure, the conclusion gets some uncertainly regarding the cost of using disposable device although an overall favourable trend exists toward LigaSure, conclusions are not univocal and definitive; this creates some uncertainty, also considering the increasing cost for the use of the disposable device so essential to compare our study with another centres to emphasis the true advantage present. The debate is the "gold standard" for III degrees. There are large agreements that Milligan-Morgan and Ferguson are the most effective in IV degree pile . Ortiz mentions that stapled procedure is ineffective for curing itching in an IV degree pile . So the diathermy pile excision continues as an effective therapy for the symptomatic, irreducible and prolapsed pile. The designed study to estimate the LigaSure procedures as effective as conventional diathermy in all grades IV and III with less pain, less blood loss and when we need large tissue excision needed.
