Mucopexy Versus Laser Hemorrhoidoplasty for the Treatment of Hemorrhoidal Disease — MuLa  

Hemorrhoids Clinical Trial

Official title:
Mucopexy Versus Laser Hemorrhoidoplasty for the Treatment of Hemorrhoidal Disease, a Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

Hemorrhoidal disease is a frequent anorectal disorder and the main reason for a visit to a coloproctologist. Hemorrhoids are present in healthy individuals. However, they can become pathologic, manifesting with pain, prolapse, itching, bleeding or soiling. Initially, they can be managed conservatively. When this failed to cure the symptoms, surgical therapy is indicated. For grade II (hemorrhoids prolapsing during straining but reducing spontaneously) or grade III (hemorrhoids prolapsing during straining but requiring manual reduction), laser hemorrhoidoplasty or mucopexy are safe and efficient procedures to treat hemorrhoids. However, the optimal treatment is still under debate. Recently, a randomized controlled trial reported lower recurrence and faster return to work associated with laser therapy. We aimed to compare both therapies, to assess the benefits of laser therapy for the treatment of hemorrhoidal disease symptoms, using a validated score.
