Patient NHH (43 years old), in Ward 1, Dong Ha City, had hemorrhoids for many years. Despite many treatments, the hemorrhoids did not go away and he was diagnosed with grade 3 internal hemorrhoids. After consultation, the doctors decided to apply laser surgery.
This is a minimally invasive method of treating hemorrhoids using laser energy. In this technique, a laser is used to burn and shrink hemorrhoids, instead of cutting them out with a scalpel or stitching. Because of the hemostatic properties of the laser, this method has the potential to reduce intraoperative bleeding and postoperative pain compared to conventional surgery.
Under the guidance of Master, Doctor Le Chau Hoang Quoc Chuong, the team of doctors and nurses of the General Surgery Department, Quang Tri General Hospital performed anesthesia, exposure; made small incisions in each hemorrhoid and inserted a laser fiber; and used laser to shrink the hemorrhoid...
The surgery was performed successfully and safely, within 25 - 30 minutes. According to Master, Doctor Le Chau Hoang Quoc Chuong, Acting Head of the Department of Proctology, University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, laser hemorrhoidectomy is a safe method, with high efficiency thanks to the use of high-heat laser to intervene at the root of the hemorrhoid, helping to cut off the blood vessels that feed the hemorrhoid, causing the hemorrhoid to shrink and fibrous quickly.
This method is minimally invasive, helps patients have less pain, has a gentle postoperative period and shortens recovery time.
The successful reception and implementation of laser hemorrhoidectomy surgery has helped Quang Tri General Hospital take a step forward in improving its professional capacity. Thereby contributing to significantly improving the quality of medical examination and treatment at the unit, bringing practical benefits to the people.
