A microscope score for hemorrhoid surgery: could it lead to less pain?

NCT ID NCT07719881

First seen Jul 22, 2026 · Last updated Jul 23, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study aims to create and test a new scoring system called HeQAS that uses a microscope to evaluate the technical quality of hemorrhoid removal surgery. Researchers will check if the score is reliable and whether a newer, less invasive surgical method causes less tissue damage than the standard approach. The study involves 80 adults undergoing hemorrhoid surgery at participating hospitals.
