Filter by:Hemorrhoidal disease, characterized by symptomatic enlargement and distal displacement of anal cushions, has been a subject of recognition and management for centuries. The etymology of "hemorrhoid" is traced back to the Greek words haima (blood) and rhoos (flow). Prevalent in over 20% of the population across various life stages, this anorectal condition impacts both genders. The multifaceted development of the disease incorporates theories encompassing abnormal dilation of hemorrhoidal plexuses, distension of arteriovenous anastomoses, prolapse of anal pads, and a myriad of genetic, anatomical, dietary, and lifestyle factors. Manifestations range from venous distension to bleeding and thrombosis, with classification based on location (internal/external/combined) and degree of prolapse (grade 1-4). Upon comprehensive history-taking and examinations, including digital rectal and proctoscope assessments, a definitive diagnosis is established, leading to the treatment phase. Although outpatient procedures demonstrate efficacy, patients may persist with pain and discomfort. Medical intervention assumes significance for stages 1 and 2, incorporating approaches such as rubber-band ligation, injection sclerotherapy, and dietary modifications. Micronized Purified Flavonoid Fraction (MPFF), integral to hemorrhoid treatment, has been scrutinized for its ability to mitigate pathogenic processes culminating in acute bleeding. The stagnation of blood in vascular plexuses prompts an inflammatory response, activating white cells and increasing vessel wall permeability. MPFF's flavonoid compounds are posited to alleviate bleeding by augmenting venous tone, reducing stasis, inhibiting inflammatory mediators, and enhancing lymphatic drainage[8]. Multiple trials substantiate MPFF's efficacy in ceasing bleeding, alleviating symptoms, and preventing hemorrhoid relapse. Aescin, a saponin mixture found in Aesculus hippocastanum (horse chestnut). The primary active component, β-aescin, contributes to the plant's medicinal attributes. Experimental investigations in animal models underscore its anti-edematous, anti-inflammatory, and venotonic properties, attributed to molecular mechanisms facilitating ion entry into channels and elevating venous tension. While the therapeutic benefits of aescin for hemorrhoids are acknowledged, the absence of randomized control trials impedes the conclusive validation of its efficacy. In the realm of diverse treatment options, this proposed randomized controlled trial aims to assess the comparative effectiveness of combining aescin with MPFF versus MPFF alone in managing hemorrhoid-related symptoms. The study aspires to furnish valuable insights for refining therapeutic strategies in the management of hemorrhoids and enhancing patient outcomes.
This is a prospective observational study collecting long-term clinical data and samples for research in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients with gut inflammation and a control cohort of pediatric patients with disorders of the brain-gut interactions (DBGI) with no detectable gut inflammation.
1. evaluate psychiatric disorders among patients with anorectal dyssynergia 2. evaluate the effect of delayed diagnosis of anorectal dyssynergia on the quality of the life
The study aimed at diagnose and to detect the incidence of functional anorectal disorders in patients with inactive inflammatory bowel disease and to highlight the role of anorectal manometry in evaluating IBD patients with persistent defecatory dysfunction .
Anal fissure is a common anorectal diseases characterized by tear of the anoderm from the dentate line to the anal verge leading to pain and bleeding during and post defecation. It may be a benign disease, but patients suffering from disease report significantly impacted quality of life especially when it becomes chronic. Several treatment modalities have been studied for chronic anal fissure, and topical calcium channel blockers (CCB) showed promising benefit and side effect profile in treatment of chronic anal fissure. Topical Diltiazem and Nifedipine are currently widely used CCBs for chronic anal fissure after multiple studies showing their benefits compared to different agents or modalities. To the investigators' knowledge, there is no study comparing the efficacy of topical Diltiazem and Nifedipine directly. The investigators aim to design a pragmatic randomized clinical trial to compare the efficacy, and side effect profile of topical Nifedipine and Diltiazem in treatment of chronic anal fissure.
This study is the evaluation of ultrafine endoscope (with small caliber and turning radius )for colonoscopy in decreasing abdominal pain of patients . 60 patients will be accepted in this trial.
