What is Laser Surgery?

Laser (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) surgery uses highly focused energy beams to cut, seal, or shrink tissue with extreme precision.

Why it is ideal for anorectal conditions:

  • Minimally invasive: fewer or no cuts
  • Less bleeding: laser seals blood vessels
  • Reduced postoperative pain
  • Quick recovery and return to daily life
  • Outpatient or short-stay procedure

Laser Surgery for Specific Anorectal Conditions

Laser Hemorrhoidoplasty

  • The laser fiber is introduced into the hemorrhoid tissue
  • Heat energy shrinks and seals off the blood vessels
  • Piles shrink gradually over weeks
Benefits:
  • No external cuts or stitches
  • Minimal postoperative discomfort
  • Quick return to routine activities
  • Excellent cosmetic results

Laser Sphincterotomy for Anal Fissure

  • The laser is used to release tension in the internal anal sphincter
  • Promotes healing of the fissure
Benefits:
  • Precise control with minimal muscle damage
  • Reduced pain compared to conventional sphincterotomy
  • Very low recurrence rates

Laser Surgery for Pilonidal Sinus

  • The sinus tract is gently cleaned, and a radial laser probe is introduced
  • Laser energy destroys the tract lining, collapses it, and seals it
Benefits:
  • Small incision, minimal tissue loss
  • Faster healing
  • Lower recurrence rates compared to wide excision
  • Less scarring

Laser in Fistula-in-Ano (A Cautious Approach)

While laser techniques (FiLaC – Fistula Laser Closure) are promoted as minimally invasive solutions, international studies and long-term outcomes show mixed results.

Concerns with laser in fistula-in-ano:

  • Higher recurrence rates compared to conventional procedures (like fistulotomy or LIFT)
  • Effectiveness depends heavily on fistula type (simple vs complex, high vs low)
  • In complex or high fistulas, success rates are lower, and repeat procedures may be required

Our Approach:

  • We use laser selectively for simple, low fistulas with favorable anatomy
  • For complex/high fistulas, we recommend proven sphincter-saving techniques (e.g., LIFT, advancement flap, seton placement) to minimize recurrence and protect continence
  • Patient education is critical: we ensure you understand benefits and limitations before choosing laser for fistula treatment

What to Expect During Laser Surgery

A clear guide to help you understand the process from evaluation to recovery.

01

Preoperative Evaluation

  • Medical history, physical exam, proctoscopy, MRI (for fistula)
  • Blood tests and anesthesia clearance
02

Day of Surgery

  • Usually under spinal or short general anesthesia
  • Duration: 20–40 minutes depending on condition
  • Minimally invasive, often daycare procedure
03

Postoperative Care

  • Mild pain, controlled with oral medicines
  • Sitz baths, high-fiber diet, and hydration encouraged
  • Back to desk job in 2–3 days (hemorrhoids/fissure) or 5–7 days (pilonidal/fistula)
04

Follow-up

  • Regular check-ups to monitor healing
  • Guidance on lifestyle modifications to prevent recurrence

FAQs on Laser Surgery for Anorectal Conditions

Laser surgery causes significantly less pain compared to conventional surgery. Most patients report only mild discomfort, which is easily managed with oral medication.

  • Hemorrhoids/fissure: 2–3 days for routine activity
  • Pilonidal sinus/fistula: 5–7 days for light work, 2–3 weeks for complete healing

Recurrence is rare if dietary and lifestyle changes are maintained, but possible if constipation and straining persist.

Yes, it is especially beneficial due to its minimally invasive nature, shorter anesthesia time, and faster recovery.

Laser closure for fistula has variable success rates and higher chances of recurrence. For complex cases, other sphincter-saving surgeries may be safer.

Your surgeon will evaluate your condition through examination and scans. The decision depends on your diagnosis, anatomy, and overall health.

Most laser surgeries leave minimal to no visible scars, especially compared to conventional wide excision.

Most patients return to desk jobs in less than a week. Heavy physical work may require a longer break.
