Endoscopic Injection Sclerotherapy for Piles at Geetanjali Multispeciality Hospital, Wai

What are Piles (Hemorrhoids)?

Piles, also known as hemorrhoids, are swollen veins in the lower rectum or anus that can cause discomfort, pain, and bleeding. They are a common condition and can be managed with both medical and surgical treatments depending on the grade and severity.

Patient Background

A patient at Geetanjali Multispeciality Hospital, Wai was admitted for fistula in ano surgery. The patient also had anemia due to frequent per-rectal (PR) bleeding, which was secondary to internal hemorrhoids (piles).

The Procedure Performed

Along with the diagnostic sigmoidoscopy, our surgical team performed an advanced therapeutic procedure — Endoscopic Injection Sclerotherapy for Piles.

This procedure involves injecting a special sclerosing solution into the hemorrhoidal veins under endoscopic guidance. The solution causes the veins to shrink, thereby reducing bleeding and symptoms.

The anesthesia was effectively managed by Dr. Vidula Kane, ensuring a smooth and safe procedure.

Why Choose Injection Sclerotherapy?

• Minimally invasive and safe

• Performed as a day-care procedure

• Effective for Grade 1 and Grade 2 hemorrhoids

• Less postoperative pain compared to conventional surgery

• Quick recovery and early return to daily activities
