"Hemorrhoid embolization" refers to a medical procedure that involves the introduction of embolic agents into the blood vessels supplying hemorrhoids, which are swollen blood vessels in the anal canal. This procedure is typically performed to treat symptomatic hemorrhoids that have not responded well to conservative treatments.
During hemorrhoid embolization, small particles or coils are inserted into the blood vessels that supply the hemorrhoids. These particles or coils cause the blood vessels to shrink and ultimately reduce the size of the hemorrhoids. The reduced blood flow to the hemorrhoids can help alleviate symptoms such as pain, bleeding, and discomfort.
Hemorrhoid embolization is considered a minimally invasive alternative to traditional surgical procedures for hemorrhoids. It is often performed by interventional radiologists and may offer benefits such as quicker recovery times and reduced post-procedure discomfort compared to surgical approaches.
It's important to note that medical procedures and terminology can change over time, and it's always a good idea to consult with a medical professional or specialist for the most up-to-date and accurate information regarding any medical procedure.
