Abstract

We present results obtained in our first series of 25 patient treated by prolassomucosectomy for haemorrhoidal prolapse with a follow up of 18-36 months. Control of the disease and functional results proved to be optimal. After small early haemorrhages from the suture line, we started adding stitch sutures with haemostatic intent to all three vascular pedicles. Early or late additional complication were not observed.
