HAL-RAR – Haemorrhoidal Artery Ligation and Recto Anal Repair – is a new form of treatment for all grades of haemorrhoids, which effectively targets symptoms and prolapse and causes patients only minimal – if any – pain.
Morbid changes in the anal region are becoming an increasingly widespread problem for the world’s population. Some 50% of people will suffer from haemorrhoidal disease at some stage in their life, however up until now, many of them have put off consulting their doctor because of the pain associated with the various treatment methods. Only now, after many years of stagnation in the development of surgical treatment for symptomatic haemorrhoids, are new alternatives being developed that are changing the status quo. Innovative new procedures such as HAL-RAR take away patients’ fear and ensure they visit a doctor in the early stages – in particular those doctors offering such effective and vitually pain-free treatment. So make the most of this new option for your practice or hospital!
HAL (Haemorrhoidal Artery Ligation)
The HAL method is suitable for treating low to medium grade haemorrhoids, and is extremely effective in addressing the symptoms of haemorrhoidal disease. The ligations serve to reduce the arterial blood supply, causing the haemorrhoidal cushions to shrink back to normal size. This method can be carried out with ease using the RAR Flexi Probe.
As a rule, between five and eight arteries will be found during the procedure. However, this number can vary from patient to patient, and will also depend on the severity of the haemorrhoids in each case.
RAR (Recto Anal Repair)
The RAR method is used to treat the prolapsing haemorrhoids that occur during more advanced stages of the disease. RAR involves one or more mucopexies of prolapsing mucosa, carried out after the haemorrhoidal arteries have been ligated.
New probe technology
The RAR Flexi Probe offers surgeons several key advantages for both the HAL and RAR procedures:
