Comparing three ways to perform hemorrhoid surgery
Part of Digestive system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study compares three different surgical techniques for treating mixed hemorrhoids (internal and external hemorrhoids). The goal is to find which approach leads to better recovery and fewer complications.

This study compares two minimally invasive procedures for treating grade II-III internal hemorrhoids. Both are done through a scope and aim to reduce symptoms with less pain and faster recovery than traditional surgery.
This trial compares two surgical approaches for advanced (grade III or IV) hemorrhoids. One is a newer sutureless technique and the other the standard ligation (tying) method. It aims to see which provides better relief from symptoms like bleeding and pain.
This study compares two different follow-up schedules after hemorrhoid surgery: routine check-ins versus more frequent check-ins. It aims to see which approach leads to better recovery and fewer problems.
This study compares two surgical tools used to remove hemorrhoids: Ligasure, which seals blood vessels with heat and pressure, and conventional diathermy, which uses heat to cut and stop bleeding. The goal is to see which method helps patients recover better with less pain.
This study compares two surgical methods for severe (grade III-IV) mixed hemorrhoids: a newer technique that removes and lifts the hemorrhoid tissue, versus the standard Milligan-Morgan procedure. The goal is to see which approach gives better symptom relief and faster recovery with fewer complications, helping patients like you choose the best option.
This study compares two surgeries for internal hemorrhoids: a newer laser treatment that aims to reduce pain versus the traditional open surgery. If you have painful internal hemorrhoids, this trial may help you find a less painful recovery option.
