Conservative management of hemorrhoids: a comparison of venotonic flavonoid micronized purified flavonoid fraction (MPFF) and sclerotherapy.

Purpose: To compare the results of the conservative management of hemorrhoids between venotonic flavonoid micronized purified flavonoid fraction (MPFF) and sclerotherapy, in terms of the subjective and objective outcome of patients after a follow-up period of 2 years.

Methods: One hundred and twenty-six patients who suffered from 1st-and 2nd-degree hemorrhoids were divided into 2 groups. The first (n = 64) and second (n = 62) groups underwent venotonic flavonoid MPFF (VF) and sclerotherapy (SCL).
