Abstrakt:	Introduction: Minimally invasive techniques still continue to maintain their popularity in hemorrhoidal disease. In this study, we aimed to present the symptomatic recovery and recurrence rates, post-operative pain levels, and complication rates of patients treated with the laser hemorrhoidoplasty (LHP) method in our clinic. Methods: The data of patients who underwent LHP due to Grades 2, 3, and 4 internal hemorrhoidal disease in our clinic were reviewed retrospectively. The patients enrolled in the study were followed for at least 6 months (6 months, 1 year, and 2 years) and their results were analyzed. Results: A total of 103 patients were included in the study. Seventy-five (72.8%) of them were male and the mean age was 41.6 ± 13.6 years. The mean operation time was 17.9 ± 5.2 min and minor complications developed in 3 (2.9%) patients postoperatively. Mean time to return to normal daily life was 2.17 (1-11) days. Recurrence developed in 16 (17.6%) patients with Grades 2 and 3 disease and in 6 (50%) of 12 patients with Grade 4 disease (p = 0.019). Conclusion: LHP is a popular procedure which is effective in selected patient groups with acceptable recurrence rates. (Copyright: © 2023 Permanyer.)
