Could a tiny camera make hemorrhoid surgery less painful?

NCT ID NCT07695649

First seen Jul 10, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new, minimally invasive version of Ferguson hemorrhoidectomy for people with grade III hemorrhoids. The goal is to see if using enhanced visualization tools can reduce pain and speed recovery while keeping the surgery effective. About 50 adults who need hemorrhoid surgery will take part, and researchers will track how well the technique works and any side effects.

Active substance
Minimally invasive closed hemorrhoidectomy (procedure)
What this could lead to
If successful, this technique could offer a less painful, faster-recovering surgical option for advanced hemorrhoids.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The technique has a learning curve and may initially take longer to perform.
