Open Hemorrhoidectomy
Patients in this group undergo a hemorrhoidectomy procedure where, after external stripping and internal ligation, the surgical wound is left entirely open without sutures to heal by secondary intention. All patients receive standard postoperative care including potassium permanganate rinses and povidone-iodine disinfection.
Closed Hemorrhoidectomy (Ferguson Technique)
Patients in this group undergo a hemorrhoidectomy procedure where, after achieving hemostasis, the entire surgical wound is closed primarily using interrupted non-absorbable sutures. All patients receive standard postoperative care including potassium permanganate rinses and povidone-iodine disinfection.
Semi-Closed Hemorrhoidectomy
Patients in this group undergo a hemorrhoidectomy procedure where, after achieving hemostasis, the distal half of the incision (away from the anal canal) is closed with interrupted sutures, while the proximal half remains open. All patients receive standard postoperative care including potassium permanganate rinses and povidone-iodine disinfection.
