Study on Ambulatory Proctological Surgery as a Novel Method of Practice

Ambulatory proctological surgery is becoming more popular due to time and financial constraints. Our research focuses on ambulatory proctological surgery as an innovative and cost-effective procedure. The first ambulatory anorectal surgery was performed in 1962 at the University of California, Los Angeles, and has since evolved through the years. The study comprised 30 patients who underwent elective anorectal operations with posterior perineal block at KLES hospital Belgaum between November 2004 and November 2005. All of the patients in the posterior perineal block group were ambulatory in less than half an hour after surgery, proving that ambulatory proctological surgery is a revolutionary procedure in today's practise. The majority of the patients experienced just minor discomfort following surgery. Urinary retention occurred in 16.7% of patients after surgery, however it was statistically insignificant. Within 24 hours of surgery, 86.67% of patients in the posterior perineal block group were discharged. According to our findings, ambulatory proctological surgery is recommended as a novel method of practise, particularly under posterior perineal block, because there is less post-operative pain and patients are discharged sooner, lowering costs and making healthcare more affordable.
