Over the last 2 years,the investigators have performed laser haemorrhoidectomy for 60 patients. The age range was 32 to 81 years .The ratio for male: female was 31:29. All were done under local anaesthesia with sedation except one (1.6%) which was converted to general anaesthesia. All patients except 2 (3.5%) were discharged within two hours of operation. One was delayed due to administration of general anaesthesia and the second one was admitted for post operative bleeding and was actively observed for three days, after which he was discharged. There were four re-admissions (6.6%), two had post operative oedema & two had oedema and pain. All of them were actively observed and discharged later. Four patients (6.6%) also developed chronic anal fissures post operatively, two of them healed with six weeks course of Glyceryl Tri Nitrate (GTN) cream and the other two are on conservative management for non-healing fissures.
