BACKGROUND: This study assessed the efficacy of endoscopic @entity6713 for treatment of @entity1 with symptoms caused by internal @entity6713 . METHODS: A total of 576 consecutive @entity1 with symptoms caused by internal @entity6713 were enrolled in the study. Symptoms were @entity548 (239 @entity1 ) and prolapse (337 @entity1 ). The severity of the @entity6713 was classified by using the grading system of Goligher. RESULTS: All @entity1 were treated by the same operator. Mean follow-up was 17.5 months (range 8 to 24 months). The mean number of band ligations per session was 2.86. The mean number of treatment sessions was 1.24. At least one grade reduction in the severity of the @entity6713 was achieved in most @entity1 (93.58%). Moreover, @entity548 was controlled in 228 @entity1 (95.4%), and rectal prolapse was reduced in 310 @entity1 (91.99%). After treatment, 85 @entity1 experienced anal @entity158 , 37 had mild @entity548 , 4 developed external @entity715 , and one had a peri-anal abscess. The latter 5 @entity1 were treated surgically and recovered uneventfully. CONCLUSIONS: Endoscopic @entity6713 is a simple, safe, and effective treatment for @entity1 with symptoms caused by internal @entity6713 .
