Twenty-five patients with second- or third-degree hemorrhoids were treated on an outpatient basis using a modified form of pile suture of Farag. There were no postoperative complications such as acute urinary retention, hemorrhage, infection, or anal stenosis. After follow-up for 12 to 18 months, the method has relieved bleeding in all patients and anal prolapse in 96 per cent of them. The modified pile suture is useful in a tropical setting where excisional hemorrhoidectomy is a costly operation.
25例二度或三度痔疮患者在门诊接受了改良的法拉格痔缝合术治疗。术后未出现诸如急性尿潴留、出血、感染或肛门狭窄等并发症。经过12至18个月的随访，该方法使所有患者的出血症状得到缓解，96%的患者肛门脱垂症状得到缓解。改良痔缝合术在热带地区是有用的，在那里切除性痔切除术是一项昂贵的手术。
