When should a patient opt for MIPH for the management of hemorrhoidal disease? - Dr Abhayanand Kumar
Overview
MIPH (Minimally Invasive Procedure for Hemorrhoids) is a surgical procedure used for the treatment of hemorrhoids. It is typically recommended for individuals with Grade III or Grade IV hemorrhoids or for those with Grade II hemorrhoids that haven't responded to non-surgical treatments.
Patients may consider opting for MIPH when they experience persistent or severe symptoms associated with hemorrhoids that significantly affect their quality of life. These symptoms might include excessive bleeding, protrusion of hemorrhoids outside the anus (prolapse), and persistent pain or discomfort that impairs daily activities.
However, the decision to undergo MIPH should be made in consultation with a healthcare professional, considering individual circumstances, the severity of symptoms, and the effectiveness of non-surgical treatments. MIPH may be recommended when conservative measures fail to provide relief or when hemorrhoids significantly impact a patient's life, aiming to alleviate symptoms and improve overall rectal health.
In this video, Dr Abhyanand Kumar, an Associate Consultant at the Department of Minimally Access and Bariatric Surgery, Primus super speciality hospital, Delhi, sheds light on the optimal scenarios for considering MIPH (Minimally Invasive Procedure for Hemorrhoids) in the management of hemorrhoidal disease. This discussion aims to clarify when patients should contemplate opting for this surgical intervention.
