For surgical excision of hemorrhoids, the Whitehead procedure is considered a poor technique responsible for anal stenosis, anal incontinence, prolapse, and mucous ectropion. However, with the modifications suggested by André Toupet, these complications do not occur. The Whitehead procedure as modified by A. Toupet requires considerable experience in anorectal surgery. Indications include total hemorrhoid prolapse, in particular with thrombosis, and mucous prolapse.
对于痔疮的手术切除，怀特黑德手术被认为是一种较差的技术，会导致肛门狭窄、肛门失禁、脱垂和黏膜外翻。然而，按照安德烈·图佩特提出的改良方法进行操作，这些并发症就不会发生。经A. 图佩特改良的怀特黑德手术需要相当丰富的肛肠外科经验。其适应证包括完全性痔脱垂，尤其是伴有血栓形成的情况，以及黏膜脱垂。
