[Consensus of Chinese experts on treatment of prolapsed hemorrhoids with transanal stapler].

Prolapsed hemorrhoids is a common clinical disease, and severe symptoms can significantly affect work and life. The transanal stapler has the advantages of simple operation and less trauma in treating prolapsed hemorrhoids. Its clinical efficacy is closely related to the selection of indications, the standardization of surgical operations, and the prevention and treatment of complications. In current clinical practice, there is no consensus on the treatment of prolapsed hemorrhoids with transanal stapler. Hence a discussion was held by the Professional Committee of Colorectal Diseases of Chinese Society of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine, concerning the indications, contraindications, operating specifications and perioperative management of prolapsed hemorrhoids. A consensus was consequently formed, aiming to provide a guideline for the clinical practice.
