About this study

This study adopted a multicenter, non-randomized controlled clinical research design. Patients with internal hemorrhoids who met the inclusion criteria were assigned to the endoscopic rubber band ligation group (observation group) or the Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy group (control group) according to their treatment preferences. Doctors who were unaware of the clinical data information evaluated the patients' postoperative recovery, the occurrence of complications, and the long-term follow-up of treatment efficacy through outpatient reexaminations, WeChat video calls, or telephone calls.
