Transanal Hemorrhoidal Dearterialization with AnoLift
Transanal hemorrhoidal dearterialization (THD) is a minimally invasive surgical treatment designed to address the underlying cause of hemorrhoids without removing any tissue. Using Doppler‑guided technology, the arteries supplying the hemorrhoids are tied off to reduce blood flow. In cases of prolapse, the procedure is complemented by a mucopexy (AnoLift®), in which the prolapsed hemorrhoidal tissue is lifted and repositioned using a special type of thick, supportive suture designed to hold tissue securely as it heals. This is performed with the THD Slide anoscope and creates controlled scarring that helps keep the tissue in its proper position. Together, these techniques reduce symptoms such as bleeding, discomfort, and prolapse while preserving normal anorectal function. THD with AnoLift® is supported by strong clinical evidence and is effective for all grades of hemorrhoidal disease that have not improved with conservative care. Patients typically experience less post‑operative pain, a quicker return to daily activities, and long‑term symptom relief. THD AnoLift® offers an advanced treatment option for hemorrhoids, supported by technology that enhances precision and patient comfort.
