Modified procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids: Lower recurrence, higher satisfaction

Figure 2 Length of hospital stay and operating time. A: Mean length of hospital stay was significantly longer after Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy (8.05 ± 2.50 d) than after any of the other procedures (^aP < 0.0001) and was significantly longer than after the modified procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (7.24 ± 1.30 d) and after the procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (6.13 ± 1.93 d) (^bP < 0.0001); B: Mean operating time was significantly greater in Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy (19.98 ± 4.21 min) than in any of the other procedures (^cP < 0.0001) and was significantly shorter in the procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (13.30 ± 2.74 min) than in the modified procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (15.55 ± 3.27 min) (^dP < 0.0001). MMH: Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy; M-PPH: Modified procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids; PPH: Procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids.
