Radiofrequency vs. doppler-guided surgery for hemorrhoids
Part of Digestive system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study compares two minimally invasive procedures for treating symptomatic grade 2 or 3 hemorrhoids: radiofrequency ablation and doppler-guided hemorrhoidal artery ligation. The goal is to see which one works better and is safer.

This trial studies a procedure that blocks blood flow to bleeding hemorrhoids (called superior rectal arterial embolization). It may help people with hemorrhoid bleeding who are being considered for treatment, especially when bleeding is significant.
This study compares two treatment approaches for hemorrhoids that are grades II–III and did not improve with non-surgical treatments. It looks at safety and whether the treatments work better for symptom relief.
This trial compares two endoscopic procedures for treating grade II or III internal hemorrhoids, testing which one works better and is safer. It may help you find a less invasive treatment option.
This trial tests three different surgical methods for mixed hemorrhoids to see which one works best. It helps doctors understand which technique offers the best recovery and results.
This trial compares two treatment methods for internal hemorrhoids that haven't improved with diet, fiber, or creams. One method blocks blood flow to the hemorrhoids using a catheter (a thin tube); the other uses rubber bands to cut off blood supply. Both are minimally invasive procedures.
This trial tests if blocking certain blood vessels in the rectum can reduce bleeding and other symptoms from hemorrhoids. If you have bothersome internal hemorrhoids that haven't been helped by other treatments or if surgery is not an option for you, this study may be a fit.
