After a careful review of the Author's own case list and of the literature on this subject, Milligan-Morgans' technique is assessed and compared with different surgical techniques as far as early and late complications are concerned. The Authors conclude that the Milligan-Morgan technique is to be preferred because of its simplicity, safety and flexibility, particularly if associated with sphincterectomy, with or without rhagade, in order to prevent the cicatricial scars.

Introduction The debate remains unresolved about whether an open (Milligan-Morgan) or closed (Ferguson) approach is superior for hemorrhoidectomy. Advocates from both groups state that each has its own set of advantages and disadvantages. In light of this, we intend to share our experience by comparing the two in terms of their post-operative outcomes.

Several surgical techniques and devices have been developed to overcome these postoperative problems.
Objective: To compare perioperative and postoperative outcomes of hemorrhoidectomy performed with the LigaSure and the conventional Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy among Nigerian patients with symptomatic hemorrhoids.

Article Synopsis
- The study compared the surgical outcomes of two hemorrhoidectomy techniques: the conventional Milligan-Morgan method and the LigaSure technique.
- From June 2016 to March 2022, data on 91 patients showed that LigaSure had a significantly shorter operation time, reduced hospital stay, and lower pain scores compared to Milligan-Morgan.
- The findings suggest that LigaSure hemorrhoidectomy is a superior option for patients due to quicker recovery times and improved overall outcomes, encouraging surgeons to consider this method for better efficiency.
