What is minimally invasive proctology?

Proctology focuses on conditions affecting the anus and rectum, including hemorrhoids, anal fissures, anal fistulas and prolapse. Minimally invasive proctology uses advanced diagnostic and surgical techniques to investigate and treat these conditions while limiting unnecessary disruption to surrounding tissue.

Depending on the condition, this may mean smaller wounds, preservation of the anal sphincter and anorectal anatomy, and a more comfortable recovery compared with some conventional surgical approaches.

What conditions do our proctologists treat?

Our Advanced Proctology Clinic in Dubai diagnoses and treats a range of anorectal conditions, including:

• Hemorrhoids
• Anal fistulas
• Anal fissures
• Pilonidal sinus
• Anal and rectal prolapse
• Anal warts and dysplasia
• Anal and rectal tumors
• Other conditions causing anorectal pain, bleeding or discomfort

Symptoms such as rectal bleeding, persistent anal pain, swelling, discharge, itching or a change around the anus should be assessed rather than ignored. While many anorectal conditions are benign, an examination can help determine the cause and the right treatment.

What minimally invasive proctology treatments are available?

Treatment is selected according to the condition, its severity and the individual patient. King’s College Hospital Dubai offers advanced proctology and endoscopic techniques including:

• Hemorrhoid treatment, including Doppler-assisted techniques designed to preserve anorectal anatomy
• VAAFT (Video-Assisted Anal Fistula Treatment) for selected anal fistulas
• EPSiT (Endoscopic Pilonidal Sinus Treatment) for pilonidal sinus
• High-resolution video-assisted proctoscopy
• High-resolution anoscopy
• 360-degree endoanal ultrasound (EAUS)
• Anorectal manometry
• Endoscopic and surgical treatment for suitable anorectal conditions

Your consultant will recommend the most appropriate approach after assessment rather than assuming surgery is always necessary.
