-
Ligasure vs. Conventional Diathermy in Hemorrhoidectomy
This study tests whether using the Ligasure device during hemorrhoidectomy reduces pain and bleeding compared with conventional diathermy in patients with symptomatic hemorrhoids.
-
Sutureless hemorrhoidectomy vs conventional ligation for advanced hemorrhoids
This study tests whether a sutureless, energy-based hemorrhoidectomy can reduce pain and recovery time compared with the standard Milligan-Morgans procedure in adults with Grade III–IV hemorrhoids.
-
Botulinum toxin A injection before hemorrhoid surgery to reduce postoperative pain
This study will see if injecting botulinum toxin A into the internal anal sphincter a week before hemorrhoidectomy reduces post-operative pain for adults with grade III–IV hemorrhoids.
-
Pudendal nerve block versus sacral erector spinae (ESP) block for pain after hemorrhoidectomy
This will test whether the sacral erector spinae (ESP) block gives equal or better pain relief than the pudendal nerve block for adults having elective hemorrhoid surgery.
-
Are hemorrhoids linked to varicose veins in the legs?
This project will see if adults with hemorrhoids are more likely to have varicose veins in their lower limbs by comparing 200 people with hemorrhoids to 200 patients with other benign anorectal conditions.
-
Ultrasound-guided sacral erector spinae plane block versus saddle block for anesthesia during hemorrhoidectomy
This will test whether an ultrasound-guided sacral erector spinae plane block works as well as a saddle block for adults having hemorrhoidectomy.
-
Trans-radial superior rectal artery embolisation for bleeding haemorrhoids
This pilot will try a minimally invasive trans‑radial embolisation of the superior rectal artery to stop bleeding in adults with grade II–IV haemorrhoids who do not want or cannot have surgery.
-
New device for treating hemorrhoids
This study is testing a new device called PexyEazy® to see if it can safely and effectively treat grade II and III hemorrhoids in patients while making recovery easier and faster.
-
Evaluating a new treatment for hemorrhoids using artery embolization
This study is testing a new, less invasive treatment for hemorrhoids called artery embolization to see if it works as well as current methods for reducing bleeding and symptoms in adults with hemorrhoids.
-
Using ketamine to manage pain after hemorrhoid surgery
This study is testing if using ketamine during hemorrhoid surgery can help reduce pain afterwards for patients with severe hemorrhoids.
-
Collecting samples from patients with colorectal and gastric cancers and non-malignant diseases
This study is collecting blood and tissue samples from patients with colorectal and gastric cancers, as well as non-cancerous gastrointestinal diseases, to help with future research.
