We carried out operations on the anus in 368 patients in the 5-year period from January, 1964 to December, 1968. They comprised 200 cases of piles and prolapsus ani, and 168 cases of anal fistula, etc.
A modification of Whitehead's operation was adopted for operation on all cases of prolapsus ani.
We believe that this procedure is satisfactory, only if it is skillfully performed. We do not adopt this procedure on moderate prolapses, but it is particularly effective for serious, semi-circumferent prolapses.
We have been using resection and suture for internal piles free of prolapse.
