    What is Hemorrhoidal LASER Procedure (HeLP)?

    It is minimally invasive laser surgery for hemorrhoids that does not require anesthesia. The procedure involves the identification of terminal branches of the rectal artery using Doppler, followed by photocoagulation of these branches using a LASER diode fiber (1470nm).

    What is laser hemorrhoidoplasty (LHP)?

    Similar to HeLP, blood flow to the hemorrhoidal plexus is stopped by laser coagulation of branches of the rectal artery.

    What is Laser hemorrhoidectomy?

    Laser cauterization is a technique in which the surgeon burns to shrink the swollen hemorrhoids. Alternatively, the surgeon may use a narrow beam of the laser to focus only on hemorrhoid and not damage the nearby tissues. It is a safe procedure with minimal bleeding and a quick healing time.

    A laser fiber is passed through the anal opening and laser energy is applied to the haemorrhoidal mass. The controlled emission of laser energy reaches the submucosa zone, causing the haemorrhoidal mass to shrink. Fibrosis reconstruction generates new connective tissue, ensuring the mucosa adheres to the underlying tissue preventing the recurrence of prolapse.

    What is FILAC technique (Fistula – Tract Laser Closure)?

    It is a minimally invasive and sphincter-preserving technique used in treating anorectal fistula. The affected tissue (epithelialized path) is destroyed and sealed using laser emission radially 360° in a controlled manner. This is one of the most commonly resorted laser treatment for fistula in Hyderabad.

    What is Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy (LIS)?

    For chronic anal fissure that is resistant to medical and conservative approaches, the doctor may decide to perform a surgery called as lateral internal sphincterotomy (LIS). During the surgery, a small portion of the sphincter muscle is removed. This helps to reduce pain and pressure and allow healing of fissure.

    Before Surgery: The medical team will explain to you about the procedure and also give you instructions about do’s and don’ts before and after the surgery. You will also undergo some pre-operative investigations.
