While newer, minimally invasive techniques (like laser ablation, stapled hemorrhoidopexy, or Doppler-guided artery ligation) have grown in popularity due to faster recovery times, conventional excisional hemorrhoidectomy (such as the Ferguson or Milligan-Morgan techniques) remains the gold standard of definitive treatment for large, severe, or persistently bleeding piles. Conventional Hemorrhoidectomy Is Crucial for Large Bleeding Piles.
Complete Physical Removal of Diseased Tissue
Unlike non-excisional treatments that only shrink or reposition the tissue, conventional hemorrhoidectomy physically excises the enlarged vascular cushions and surrounding redundant skin. For large, grade III or grade IV piles that remain constantly pr*****ed or bleed profusely, physically removing the structural source is often the only way to stop the bleeding completely.
