A Modern, Minimally Invasive Treatment for Hemorrhoids (Piles)
Hemorrhoids, commonly known as piles, are swollen veins in the anal canal that can cause bleeding, prolapse (coming out during defecation), discomfort, itching, and difficulty maintaining hygiene. Chivate Suture Hemorrhoidopexy is an advanced, minimally invasive surgical technique that effectively treats hemorrhoids while preserving normal anatomy and minimizing pain.
Chivate Suture Hemorrhoidopexy is a non-excisional procedure, which means that the hemorrhoids are not cut or removed. Instead, special sutures are placed above the hemorrhoids inside the anal canal. These sutures reposition the prolapsed hemorrhoidal tissue back to its normal position and reduce its blood supply, causing the hemorrhoids to shrink over time.
Since the procedure is performed above the pain-sensitive area of the anal canal, patients experience significantly less pain compared to conventional hemorrhoid surgery.
This technique is particularly useful for patients with:
The surgery is usually performed under spinal or general anesthesia. Using a specially designed anoscope, sutures are placed circumferentially inside the rectum above the hemorrhoidal cushions. These sutures lift the prolapsed tissue and interrupt excessive blood flow to the hemorrhoids.
The procedure generally takes 20–30 minutes and most patients can return home within 24 hours.
Most patients experience only mild discomfort after the procedure. Normal activities can usually be resumed within a few days.
After surgery, patients are advised to:
Although complications are uncommon, they may include:
Your surgeon will discuss these risks with you before the procedure.
Most patients experience significantly less pain compared to conventional hemorrhoidectomy because the sutures are placed in an area with fewer pain-sensitive nerves.
Most patients are discharged the same day or within 24 hours.
Many patients return to desk work within 2–5 days, depending on individual recovery.
No hemorrhoid procedure can guarantee zero recurrence. However, Chivate Suture Hemorrhoidopexy has shown excellent long-term results when combined with proper dietary and lifestyle modifications.
At our center, Chivate Suture Hemorrhoidopexy is performed using evidence-based techniques to ensure maximum patient comfort, safety, and long-term relief from hemorrhoidal symptoms.
