    Laser haemorrhoidoplasty (LHP) is an emerging nonexcisional surgical procedure in which the arteriovenous flow of the haemorrhoidal plexus is interrupted through laser coagulation. The aim of this cohort study was to assess efficacy of LHP in treating symptomatic haemorrhoidal disease through patient satisfaction, remission of symptoms (blood loss, pain, itching, soiling, mucosal prolapse) and recurrence of haemorrhoids.
