Length of hospitalization, pain complaints, return to full activity, wound healing time were considered. METHODS: We included the group of 63 patients: 29 patients (16 women) were randomly allocated to MM operation and 34 patients (15 women) to CF operation. Follow-up study was performed after 2, 4, 24 weeks and six and eighteen months postoperatively. RESULTS: We did not note any statistically significant differences in relation to hospitalization time 30.9 days (MM) and 30.8 days (CF). Postoperative urine retention was similar: 5 (17,2 %) patients (MM) and 7 (20,6 %) patients (CF). No differences in the intensity of postoperative pain was observed. Patients returned to work after 293 days (MM) and 342 days (CF) (p=0,059). We observed no infection of the wound in MM group but in four patients from CF group (11,8%); (p=0,053). However overall wound healing time was shorter after CF method than after MM method: 233 vs. 274 days, respectively (p=0,053). CONCLUSIONS: Our study confirms that the results after MM and CF haemorrhoidectomy are similar. We found a trend towards faster wound healing after CF procedure, however there was a trend towards higher wound infection in that group. There was also a trend towards shorter recovery time in patients after MM operation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2298\/aci0803119m","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,11,28]],"date-time":"2008-11-28T15:08:42Z","timestamp":1227884922000},"page":"119-125","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Open and closed haemorrhoidectomy for fourth degree haemorrhoids - comparative one center study"],"prefix":"10.2298","volume":"55","author":[{"given":"M.","family":"Mik","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General and Colorectal Surgery of Medical University in Lodz, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"T.","family":"Rzetecki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General and Colorectal Surgery of Medical University in Lodz, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Sygut","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General and Colorectal Surgery of Medical University in Lodz, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"R.","family":"Trzcinski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General and Colorectal Surgery of Medical University in Lodz, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Dziki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General and Colorectal Surgery of Medical University in Lodz, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1078","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/bjs.1800511104"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10151-007-0343-0"},{"key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02238242"},{"key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10350-004-6116-1"},{"key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/bjs.1800810707"},{"key":"6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02237240"},{"key":"7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/bjs.1800820215"},{"key":"8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/bjs.1800841223"},{"key":"9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02586999"},{"key":"10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2168.1999.01127.x"},{"key":"11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/bjs.5408"},{"key":"12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10350-004-7286-6"},{"key":"13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10350-006-0677-0"},{"key":"14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s101510050049"},{"key":"15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02236255"},{"key":"16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02590913"},{"key":"17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02257789"}],"container-title":["Acta chirurgica Iugoslavica"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,26]],"date-time":"2023-05-26T12:08:10Z","timestamp":1685102890000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/doiserbia.nb.rs\/Article.aspx?ID=0354-950X0803119M"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2008]]},"references-count":17,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2008]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.2298\/aci0803119m","relation":{},"ISSN":["0354-950X","2406-0887"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0354-950X","type":"print"},{"value":"2406-0887","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2008]]}}}
