The document discusses haemorrhoids (piles), which are swollen veins in the anal canal. It defines haemorrhoids and their related anatomy. Piles are classified based on their location and degree of prolapse. Common causes include straining during bowel movements and prolonged sitting. Symptoms include painless rectal bleeding, anal mass protrusion, irritation and itching. Treatment options range from conservative measures like sitz baths to procedures like rubber band ligation, injection sclerotherapy, cryotherapy and surgery. Complications include bleeding, thrombosis and prolapse if left untreated. The document provides detailed information on piles including etiology, pathology, grading, clinical features, investigations, differential diagnosis, and management approaches.
![ Haemorrhoid [Greek] =
haima = bleed + rhoos = flowering means bleeding
Blood to ooze.
Piles [Latin] = pila means a ball
ball or mass like apperance
Described in 400 B.C. by Hippocrates
They are not varicose veins, They are prolapsed anal cushions
The piles are dilated plexus of superior
haemorrhoidal veins in relation to anal canal
Piles can be mucosal (in old) or vascular (in young)-Graham
Stewart 1963

Two system of veins Portal- Internal hemorrhoidal cushion Systemic - External hemorrhoidal cushion Intercommunicates 9/2/2021 Piles-Haemorrhoids Dr Mahesh Kumar 3
- 4. Function of Anal Cushion Speculative Adds to resting anal pressure (15-20%) Aid in continence : relaxation filling, squeeze empty Aids in closure of the anal canal (washer function) – 7-8 mm gap remains at rest Discontinuous: Allows anal canal to dilate without tearing Aids in defecation Smooth glide Voluntary and involuntary control (conjoined longitudinal muscle) 9/2/2021 Piles-Haemorrhoids Dr Mahesh Kumar 4

Primary haemorrhoids Located at 3,7, 11 O’clock, related with superior haemorrhoidal vessels B. Seconadary haemorrhoids occure in b/w primary site A. Internal haemorrhoids – located above the dentate line and with mucous membrane. B. External haemorrhoids- located at anal verge covered with skin. C. Interno-eexternal haemorrhoids 9/2/2021 Piles-Haemorrhoids Dr Mahesh Kumar 18

- 24. A. Conservative Management Sitz Bath – Luke warm water, 5-10 min, 2-3 times/day It reduces pain and oedema, patient got comfort. 9/2/2021 Piles-Haemorrhoids Dr Mahesh Kumar 24
- 25. . Bowel Regulation – Decrease toileting time Avoid excessive defecation straining Intake of fiber rich diet Intake of bulk forming agents Laxative Local treatment – Ointment and suppository Management of anaemia- Iron rich diet and formulation 9/2/2021 Piles-Haemorrhoids Dr Mahesh Kumar 25
- 26. B.Specific management a) Injection Therapy – Mode of action – Sclerosant injection into submucosa above the dentate line. They firstly produce chemical thrombosis in haemorrhoidal plexus and secondly produce a fibrous reaction in submucosal layer which will fix the mucous membrane to inner muscle layer and draw up pile. Ideal Agent – 5% phenol in almond oil Gabriel syringe, Proctoscope 9/2/2021 Piles-Haemorrhoids Dr Mahesh Kumar 26
- 27. . Method -- 3 - 5 ml of sclerosant injected into submucosal plane just above ano -rectal ring to the pedicle . All three piles can be injected separately . Technique can be repeated after 6 weeks. INDICATION CONTRAINDICATION First degree and initial stage Prolapsed piles of IInd degree haemorrhoid Arterial piles Infected piles COMPLICATION Ulcerative colitis Necrosis and Injection ulcer Crohn’s disease Submucous abscess 9/2/2021 Piles-Haemorrhoids Dr Mahesh Kumar 27
- 28. b) Rubber band ligation Done in Ist or IInd degree haemorrhoid No need of anesthesia or hospitalisation No need of assistance 2 band can simultaneously used Ligation causes haemorrhoidal necrosis in 24-48 hrs and slough of in about 7 days. Main disadvantages are pain in Ist 24-48 hrs and secondary bleeding. 9/2/2021 Piles-Haemorrhoids Dr Mahesh Kumar 28
- 29. c) Cryosurgery Mode of action – Extreme cold temperature causes coagulation of tissue and ultimately necrosis of pile mass. Equipments – Cryoprobe Nitrous oxide (-98 ‘c) Liquid nitrogen (-196 ‘c) Painless procedure No need of anesthesia 9/2/2021 Piles-Haemorrhoids Dr Mahesh Kumar 29
- 30. d) Infra- red Coagulation Infra-red light produces extreme heat which coagulate pile mass and pile fall off. e) Laser therapy- It is also a treatment modality and the mode of action same as infra- red coagulation 9/2/2021 Piles-Haemorrhoids Dr Mahesh Kumar 30

INDICATIONS 3rd degree piles Fibrosed piles Failure of non operative methods POST OPERATIVE COMPLICATION Pain Retention of urine Reactionary hemorrhages Anal stricture Anal fissure POST OPERATIVE COMPLICATION Sitz bath with luke warm water Diet –soft, fluid intake Analgesics Antibiotics Bulk purgative 9/2/2021 Piles-Haemorrhoids Dr Mahesh Kumar 33
- 34. Cause – Due to rupture of dilated anal vein as result of sever straining. sudden onset of painful lump at the anus. The swelling tense & tender, bluish in colour covered with smooth shining skin. Treatment: LA evacuation if the patient come within 48h0, otherwise if late conservative treatment. if untreated the haematoma undergoes: resolution ulceration supporation to forms in abscess fibrosis which give rise to skin tag.
