INTRODUCTION: The ideal approach to the management of haemorrhoidal disease (HD) remains to be elucidated. A procedure that returns the anal cushions to their normal size without destroying them or damaging the surrounding tissues is sought. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) overcomes many of the disadvantages of the previously described repairs and may be a valuable alternative in the management of advanced HD.
AIM: To evaluate the efficacy and outcomes of the Rafaelo® technique for treatment of HD.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective observational study was carried out between June 2019 and October 2020. The haemorrhoidal severity score (HSS), the Cleveland Incontinence Score (CIS), and the visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain were compared prior to and post procedure using a paired t-test.
RESULTS: Forty-seven patients were included in the study, with a mean age of 43 years. All individual symptom scores of HSS showed statistically significant improvement post RFA (p < 0.05). Minor complications like urinary retention (6.3%) and bleeding (12%) were noted. There were 2 instances of recurrence at 2 months. No major complications like anal stenosis or infections were observed.
CONCLUSIONS: The RFA technique is a safe and effective treatment alternative for advanced HD. It results in a statistically significant improvement in the symptoms of HD and is associated with minimal discomfort to the patient with early return to normal activity.
