“Green surgery” benefits pregnant women with anorectal disease

  Recently, the hospital put forward the new concept of “green surgery” and applied this concept to pregnant women with anorectal disease, to solve the problems of pregnant women with anorectal disease, and was well received by patients.  In the late stages of pregnancy, women’s bodies and psychology change greatly, and as the fetus grows, the abdominal pressure gradually increases, causing venous reflux to be obstructed, affecting the anus will occur hemorrhoid attacks, and a large proportion of pregnant women due to hemorrhoid nucleus prolapse swelling and pain, conservative treatment is ineffective, can only resort to surgery to solve the problem. However, patients are concerned that many of the medications and measures used during hemorrhoid surgery will have more or less of an impact on the mother and fetus, which puts many pregnant women with hemorrhoids and their families in a dilemma. In response to this problem, the hospital integrated advanced, effective, non-toxic, non-irritating or low-irritating treatment measures and methods recognized at home and abroad, and proposed a new concept of “green surgery”. The so-called “green surgery” means that the perioperative period and the whole process of hospitalization will be completed with non-toxic and less stimulating methods during the whole period of hospitalization from admission to discharge.  According to the person in charge, Dr. Li Yibing, the “green surgery” takes into account both the disease of the anorectal specialist and the pregnancy of the pregnant woman in the admission diagnosis, and the two are combined to consider the condition and design the surgery. The principle is “not to operate as much as possible, and not to do a big job if you can do a small job”; to strengthen acupuncture anesthesia, so that the micro-infiltration anesthesia to achieve a good anesthetic effect; to reduce the scope of surgery by finding the signs that cause symptoms, focusing on the treatment of incisions and flaps to reduce postoperative pain; to use Chinese medicine decoction wound wet compresses, local oxygen therapy, acupuncture, etc. Post-operative anti-infection and pain relief treatments were carried out by using Chinese herbal decoction wound wet compresses, local oxygen therapy and acupuncture. Throughout the hospitalization period, pregnant women undergoing surgery for anal diseases are kept free from exposure to chemicals and other injurious stimuli that may affect the mother and fetus, and can effectively resolve the pain of anal diseases in pregnant women.  Recently, a 28-year-old patient who was 8 months pregnant with a prolapsed mixed hemorrhoid with embedded hemorrhoids told reporters after receiving this “green surgery”: “My surgery ended in a relaxed mood, all the post-operative use of Chinese herbs, no chemicals, little pain, so that I am most satisfied The most satisfying thing for me is that this surgery has no effect on the little baby inside me.”  The hospital put forward the new concept of “green surgery”, immediately after its host of Chinese anorectal surgery online expert assessment, most experts believe that: this “green surgery” concept is very suitable for pregnant women, the future will be accepted by a wider range of doctors and patients.
