Presentation
The two cases were analyzed for history, presentation, laboratory data, radiologic studies, and bacteriology. In both cases, the patients presented within one week of the hemorrhoidectomy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Entire Body System
- Surgical Procedure
After such a common surgical procedure, the patient developed full-thickness skin necrosis of the perianal region including the rectum. Immediate radical debridement was mandatory. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Noncompliance
Sixteen GTN patients were noncompliant due to side effects. None had persistent perianal skin tags. GTN did not reduce postoperative pain after stapled hemorrhoidectomy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Gastrointestinal
- Constipation
It also reduces constipation by increasing the rate of muscle contraction in the small intestines. [livestrong.com]
Functionally, all patients treated with Ligasure showed more postoperative constipation despite administration of laxatives than patients treated with THD. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The patient should avoid constipation, and it is recommended to use laxative medications if needed; Until the wound heals completely, special antiseptic ointments or solution should be used after every bowel movement. Price list [surgeryabroad.eu]
If diet and extra fluids are not enough to avoid constipation, your provider may recommend a stool softener or laxative. [summitmedicalgroup.com]
- Diarrhea
Chronic constipation, diarrhea, prolonged straining during bowel movements, a seated job, low physical activity, and unhealthy lifestyle behaviors such as smoking and alcohol consumption are factors associated with the development of hemorrhoids. [surgeryabroad.eu]
Conversely, there were no adverse antibiotic-related complications such as Clostridium difficile colitis or antibiotic-associated diarrhea in those receiving antibiotic prophylaxis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Among the patients who received antibiotic prophylaxis, no drug-related complications such as Clostridium difficile colitis and diarrhea were noted. [hcplive.com]
- Vomiting
You may have some pain, nausea, vomiting, or constipation after the procedure. Your healthcare provider may give you medicine or recommend other ways to help these problems. [summitmedicalgroup.com]
Three patients from each group (20%) were not suitable for discharge at 24 h, pain, nausea and vomiting being the main reasons. [jurnalul-anestezie.ro]
Important Safety Information EXPAREL is contraindicated in obstetrical paracervical block anesthesia Adverse reactions reported with an incidence greater than or equal to 10% following EXPAREL administration via infiltration were nausea, constipation, and vomiting [exparel.com]
- Nausea

The adverse effects were nausea, dizziness and urinary retention. CONCLUSIONS:: Pain intensity was higher in LG than in SG over the first 2 h, but without differences after 150 and 180 min. Time to first supplementation was shorter in LG. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Sometimes general anesthesia induces nausea, which may delay taking oral fluids. Once clear liquids are tolerated, the diet progresses to solid foods. Spinal anesthesia usually wears off within a few hours. [healthcommunities.com]
You may have some pain, nausea, vomiting, or constipation after the procedure. Your healthcare provider may give you medicine or recommend other ways to help these problems. [summitmedicalgroup.com]
- Rectal Pain
Surgery is also considered when symptoms become so bothersome that your lifestyle is affected or when hemorrhoids create a medical emergency, such as uncontrolled bleeding or the appearance of blood and pus at the anus along with severe rectal pain. [amoils.com]
Common Causes of Rectal Pain The four common causes of the symptom of rectal pain, pressure, or discomfort are hemorrhoids, anal fissures, fleeting anal spasms (Proctalgia fugax), and other more constant muscle spasms (Levator ani syndrome). [emedicinehealth.com]
Psychiatrical
- Withdrawn
The stapler is loosened progressively around three turns and withdrawn. The mucosal section must be complete, symmetrical and annular. It is sent to histology to verify the glandular nature of the mucosa and the absence of muscle fibers. [em-consulte.com]
The stapler is then fired and withdrawn. In females, a vaginal examination should be performed to exclude vaginal wall impingement prior to firing of the stapler. The suture line is inspected and any bleeding points ligated. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Neurologic
- Irritability
Most common symptom is pain, which can be accompanied by swelling and irritation. Nevertheless the itching is often considered to be the main symptom and sign of external hemorrhoids. The fact is that it is more common due to skin irritation. [steadyhealth.com]
Sclerotherapy— A technique for shrinking hemorrhoids by injecting an irritating chemical into the blood vessels. Sphincter— A circular band of muscle fibers that constricts or closes a passageway in the body. [encyclopedia.com]
Hemorrhoids can cause symptoms such as bleeding, pain, itching, burning, and irritation. According to the Mayo Clinic, about half of adults will suffer from hemorrhoids by age 50. [everydayhealth.com]
- Unable to Walk
Because of the swelling, I am unable to walk or sit. I am still lying in bed. The pain is very minimal so therefore once the uncomfortable "mass" is less swelled, I would be able to return to work. Help with swelling! [steadyhealth.com]
Workup
A metastatic workup ruled out any other site of malignancy. At follow-up 18 months after surgery, no evidence of malignancy or recurrence was observed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
Slight pain rate was 58.3% in the treatment group higher than 22.9% in the control group; moderate pain rate was 33.3% in the treatment group lower than 56.3% in the control group severe pain rate was 8.4% in the treatment group lower than 20.8% in the [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
Outlook (Prognosis) Most people do very well after hemorrhoid surgery. You should recover fully in a few weeks, depending on how involved the surgery was. [mountsinai.org]
What's the prognosis for a person with hemorrhoids? Most people with hemorrhoids have an excellent prognosis. [emedicinehealth.com]
Etiology
INTRODUCTION: Incidence and etiology of persistent pain after stapled hemorrhoidectomy remain uncertain. Characteristics, clinical course and management of this complication have not yet been assessed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Causes of hemorrhoids There were many researches about possible causes of hemorrhoids and some of them showed that this is a poly-etiological disease. There are several possible causes, which can provoke this condition. [steadyhealth.com]
Despite several years of study, the main etiology of hemorrhoidal disease is still largely unknown. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Pathophysiology
This allows for visualization of the amount of tissue that will be incorporated into the stapler and may have further applications in the future in treatment of anorectal pathophysiology. The steps of the procedure are outlined. [sages.org]
The exact pathophysiology of hemorrhoids is poorly understood. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The pathophysiologic background of the treatment of hemorrhoidal disease by stapler is different than the pathophysiologic basis for excision hemorrhoidectomy, and is being controversially discussed. [jamanetwork.com]

Prevention
By strengthening the anal muscles via Kegel exercises, you can prevent internal hemorrhoids from enlarging or externalizing. Additionally, the increased blood circulation strengthens the veins in the rectum and prevents new hemorrhoids. [livestrong.com]
If on medication, some medication may be stopped for 3-4 days before hemorrhoidectomy to prevent excessive bleeding during the procedure. [hemroidshelp.com]
However, dietary fibers should be added gradually in order to prevent problems with gas build-up. [medindia.net]
Many hemorrhoids can be prevented with lifestyle changes and other interventions. Your surgeon may recommend several ways to prevent future hemorrhoids from forming. [surgery.about.com]
