Description:

INTRODUCTION:

Milligan Morgan hemorrhoidectomy is conventional procedure in 3rd and 4th degree hemorrhoids but recent advances in ligasure hemorrhoidectomy have shown to produce favorable results. Comparison of these two is studied in terms of pain outcome as patient perceives, operative time, wound healing and return to normal activities.

OBJECTIVES:

To compare the outcome of ligasure hemorrhoidectomy with conventional hemorrhoidectomy in III and IV degree hemorrhoids.

STUDY DESIGN:

Randomized controlled trial

STUDY SETTING:

The study was conducted in surgical unit 1, Services hospital, Lahore.

DURATION OF STUDY:

Study was completed in six months after the approval of synopsis i.e. from 1st April 2014 to 30th September 2014.

Primary mean postoperative pain on Visual analogue scale,a scale to assess the post operative pain ,8-10 as maximum pain, 5-7 as moderate pain, 2-4 minimum pain, 1-0 as no pain and change in final outcome has been assessed after 48 hours each participant was individually assessed after operation in 6 hours,24 hours and 48 hours post-operative and changes noted in 48 hours
Primary wound healing assessed in scheduled appointment every week and has been defined as complete epithelization on physical examination .Wound was graded as 1-sloughy, 2-no granulation, 3-granulation, 4-epithelizing , 5-completely epithelized to assess change in the parameter in 3 weeks
Primary Return to work has been defined as day of discharge till resume of work that is patient is able to perform daily routine activities normally as before operation. assessed individually from the day of surgery to resume of daily activities i.e 1 to 7 days
