Abstract
PDF - Purpose
This study was performed to analyze the predictors that might contribute to urinary retention following semiclosed hemorrhoidectomy under spinal anesthesia.
Methods
This retrospective study enrolled 2,176 consecutive patients with symptomatic grade III to IV hemorrhoids who underwent semiclosed hemorrhoidectomy between September 2018 and September 2019.
Results
Among the 2,176 patients, 1,878 (86.3%) had no postoperative urinary retention, whereas 298 (13.7%) developed urinary retention after hemorrhoidectomy. The percentage of males was significantly higher in the retention group than in the non-retention group (60.4% vs. 48.1%; P=0.001). The risk of urinary retention was 1.52-fold higher in males than in females (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.13–2.04; P=0.005), 1.62-fold higher in old age (95% CI, 1.14–2.28; P=0.006), and 1.37-fold higher with high body mass index (BMI) (95% CI, 1.04–1.81; P=0.025). Patients with ≥4 resected hemorrhoids had a higher odds ratio (OR) of 1.46 (95% CI, 1.12–1.89; P=0.005) than patients with <4 resected hemorrhoids. Among the supplementary medication, patients who used analgesics had a higher OR of 2.06 (95% CI, 1.57–2.68; P=0.001) than those who did not.
Conclusion
Male sex, age, high BMI, number of resected hemorrhoids, and supplementary analgesics are independent risk factors for urinary retention after semiclosed hemorrhoidectomy. -

Abstract
PDF
- Urinary retention in common benign anal surgery is a burden to ambulatory surgery.
PURPOSE: To reduce voiding complication pudendal nerve block (PB) was applied in hemorrhoids surgery.
METHODS
We compared PB with spinal anesthesia (SA) for anal surgery. In this prospective study, 163 patients undergoing elective hemorrhoids surgery by single surgeon were randomized to receive either PB with 0.5% bupivacaine (n=81) with 1: 20,000 epinephrine or SA with 0.5% bupivacaine (n=83).
RESULTS
There were no statistically significant differences in patient demographics, total amount of administered fluid, time to onset of block, or intraoperative pain. All patients had a successful block for surgery however, puborectalis muscle relaxation with PB was not complete. The time from injection of the anesthetics to first development of pain was longer in the patients who received PB (9.1 vs 3.1h; P<0.001). Urinary catheterization needed in only 6 patients in PB group compared with 57 cases in SA group (p<0.001). Degree of pain was significantly low in PB (2.7 vs 5.2 with VAS; p<0.001) Injected analgesics was significantly reduced in PB (16/81 vs 45/82; p<0.001) CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that PB with bupivacaine results in fewer postoperative voiding complications and less pain compared with traditional SA in hemorrhoidectomy.

Abstract
PDF
- PURPOSE
Postdural puncture headache is one well-known complications of spinal anesthesia. The development of postdurals puncture headaches is related to needle size, the direction of the needle bevel, the number of dural punctures and the age of the patient. However, the effect of the sitting position after spinal anesthesia (saddle block) on the incidence of postdural puncture headaches is not yet known. This study was performed to compare the incidence rates of headaches between a saddle block group (sitting position group) and a low spinal anesthesia group (supine position group). In addition, this study was performed to identify the predisposing factors influencing postdural puncture headaches (age, sex, seasonal variation, onset of headache, location of headache).
METHODS
The authors analyzed 960 anal-surgery patients who were operated on using a saddle block or low spinal anesthesia at Hang Cinic from Jan. 2000 through Dec. 2000. The authors compared the incidence rates of headaches between the saddle block group (480 cases) and the low spinal anesthesia group (480 cases).
RESULTS
1) The incidence of postdural puncture headaches was not significantly different between the two groups (2.5% in the saddle block group, and 2.3% in the low spinal anesthesia group) (P>0.05). 2) The postdural puncture headache incidence rate was higher for younger patients (20~30 years) and for females. (M:F=7:16) (P<0.05). 3) The onest of postdural puncture headaches was at the postoperative 2nd day in 16 cases (70%) and at the postoperative 3rd day in 6 cases (26%). 4) The incidence rate of postdural puncture headache was higher in the summer (5 cases in June, and 3 cases in July, 4 cases in August). 5) The headache were located in the frontal region in 16 cases (70%) and in the occipital region in 3 cases (13%).
CONCLUSIONS
There is no significant difference in the incidence rates of postdural puncture headaches between the saddle block group and the low spinal anesthesia group. Postdural puncture headaches had a tendency to occur more frequently in young female patients and during the summer season. In addition, a more intensive study of the use of saddle block anesthesia for ambulatory anal surgery is required.

Abstract
PDF
- PURPOSE
Urinary retention is a frequent postoperative complication after benign anorectal surgery. Factors, known to affect postoperative urinary retention, are age, sex, anesthetics, operative method, operative time and perioperative fluid injection. This study was performed to know whether the incidence of urinary retention might be controlled by reducing the amount of perioperative fluid.
METHODS
Eighty patients underwent surgery for hemorrhoids and chronic anal fissures were allocated into two groups, fluid restriction group (n=37) and hydration group (n=43). All patients were consecutively randomized from May 1998 to January 1999 and they were under 50 years old without urologic abnormality. Fluid was infused at 100 ml/h from the midnight then it's rate was changed into 10 ml/h for 4 hours from the beginning of the anesthesia for the restriction group, whereas 1000 ml/h only during operation for the hydration group. Thereafter it was changed into the same rate with 100 ml/h on both groups.
RESULTS
There was no significant differences with regard to age, sex, operation time, degree of pain and use of analgesics between two groups. Although there was a significant difference in the total volume of the infused fluid (Restriction group: 53.4 119.5 ml versus Hydration group: 778.6 319.0 ml, mean SD, p<0.001). Catheterization was done in 29 patients of the restriction group (78.4%) and 37 patients of the hydration group (86.0%), respectively. The frequency of catheterization was 1.3 0.7 times in the former and 1.6 0.7 times in the latter group.
CONCLUSIONS
A strict restriction of fluid infusion appeared to be unnecessary for the purpose of preventing the urinary retention during surgery of benign anorectal diseases with spinal anesthesia.

Abstract
PDF
- INTRODUCTION: Urinary retention (UR) is one most common complication of anal surgery and its cause is multifactorial. Postdural puncture headache (PDPH) is caused by cerebrospinal fluid leakage after spinal anesthesia, therefore it may be aggravated by early ambulation. PURPOSE: To determine whether early ambulation (EA) vs. bed rest (BR) reduces the incidence of UR after anal surgery under spinal anesthesia, without causing PDPH.
METHODS
In this prospective, randomized study, 107 patients undergoing anal surgery under spinal anesthesia were randomly assigned in the EA group (n=54) or the BR group (n=53). UR was defined as a voiding difficulty that needs catheterization. In the BR group, the patients were positioned flat in bed on the operation day. Anesthetic techniques (tetracaine injection using 24-gauge needle in sitting position, bupivacaine local infiltration) and postoperative pain therapy (intramuscular demerol injection every 6 hours, oral nonsteriodal antiinflammatory drug plus acetaminophen) were standardized. Perioperative intravenous fluids were restricted.
RESULTS
Urinary retention and PDPH occurred in 32 (29.9%) and 7 (6.5%) patients, respectively. UR was significantly reduced in the EA group (10/54=18.5%) vs. the BR group (22/53=41.5%) (p=0.017, Chi-square). The incidence of PDPH, however, was not different between the two groups (5.6% in the EA vs. 7.5% in the BR group).
CONCLUSIONS
Early ambulation has important implication on reducing the incidence of urinary retention after anal surgery under spinal anesthesia, without causing PDPH.
