Background: The surgical treatment of internal haemorrhoids is yet to be fully elucidated. Rubber band ligation (RBL) and injection sclerotherapy (IS) are less invasive alternative day-case treatment options with lower morbidity than excisional haemorrhoidectomy.
Aims: This was a prospective study that compared the efficacy of RBL with 3% polidocanol IS in the treatment of Grades I to III internal haemorrhoids.
