Introduction

Transanal Hemorrhoidal Dearterialization (THD) or Hemorrhoidal Artery Ligation (HAL) is a minimally invasive, stitch-based treatment for hemorrhoids that offers excellent long-term relief without cutting or removing tissue. At Cosmocare Piles & Hernia Center in Dubai, patients experience a smooth and comfortable surgical journey, performed by an experienced colorectal and laser surgeon with advanced expertise in hemorrhoid care.

THD Procedure for Hemorrhoids Treatment

Patient Journey: Before, During & After THD / HAL Surgery

Pre-operative Preparation

Patients undergo a simple evaluation, including anorectal examination and routine blood tests. A light diet and cleansing enema are advised before surgery. Fasting for 6 hours prior to the procedure is usually required.

Intra-operative Journey of THD / HAL Surgery in Jumeirah, Dubai

The procedure is performed under short general or spinal anesthesia. Using a Doppler-guided proctoscope, the surgeon identifies and ligates the arteries supplying the hemorrhoids. In some cases, a mucopexy (lifting of the prolapsed tissue) is performed. The entire surgery takes 30-45 minutes, and since there is no tissue cutting or open wound, pain and bleeding are minimal.

Post-operative Recovery

Post-operative Recovery:
Patients can usually go home the same day. Mild discomfort or a sensation of fullness may occur for a few days. Most return to normal work in 5-7 days. A high-fiber diet, plenty of fluids, and stool softeners are recommended to prevent straining. Heavy lifting or prolonged sitting should be avoided for a week.

Advantages of THD / HAL over Traditional Hemorrhoidectomy

  • Minimal pain and bleeding – as no tissue excision or open wound
  • Faster recovery – resume normal life within days
  • Day-care procedure with minimal downtime
  • No stitches outside – excellent cosmetic outcome
  • No dressings as no open wounds
  • No sitz bath required.
  • Usually requires only a single postoperative visit.
  • Lower recurrence rate with Doppler precision targeting
  • Ideal for Grade II–III and some Gr IV hemorrhoids
