BACKGROUND: Bleeding complications are a risk associated with hemorrhoid procedures. Despite the prevalence of anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapies, including newer direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in the aging patient population there is a paucity of data regarding the impact of the use of antithrombotic therapy (AT) especially DOACs, on bleeding complications of hemorrhoid procedures.
METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed charts of patients who had undergone a total of 1152 procedures, including hemorrhoid excision and ligation, at a single institution in the years 2016-2018. We noted whether they were prescribed AT, the indication for therapy, perioperative medication management, whether a PBE occurred, and how the PBE was managed.
RESULTS: PBE's were noted in 5.92% of patients on ATs, as opposed to 2.66% of patients not on ATs (P = .014.) The odds ratio of having a PBE when on ATs vs not on ATs is 2.3 (95% CI 1.21 to 4.38, P = .011). Seven out of 40 (17.5%) total PBE's required hospital admission or repeat procedure, and this was not associated with AT use. Surprisingly, although males represented most of the patients on ATs, females were statistically more likely to have a PBE following a hemorrhoidectomy if on ATs.
DISCUSSION: Patients on AT have an elevated risk of PBE compared to patients not on AT. No significant difference was found between the two groups when considering only those PBE's severe enough to require hospital admission or repeat procedure. Further research is required to establish clear guidelines regarding the perioperative management of AT for hemorrhoid procedures.
