What Is Hemorrhoid Embolisation and How Does It Work?

Hemorrhoids, or piles, are swollen blood vessels in the lower rectum and anus that can bleed, cause itching and pain, and be an obstacle to bowel movements. In many cases, when patients are treated with medication and lifestyle adjustments, bleeding is still a problem.

Hemorrhoid embolisation is a minimally invasive treatment that interrupts the blood supply to the hemorrhoids. Dr. Sandeep Sharma passes a thin catheter through a small puncture in the wrist or groin to the arteries supplying the hemorrhoids using live X-ray guidance, and tiny coils or embolic particles are then used to cut off blood flow.

As the blood flow reduces, the anal cushions may reduce in size, and bleeding may also resolve. The treatment is usually performed under local anaesthesia alone, with or without mild sedation. No incisions are made near the anus.

Who Can Benefit from Hemorrhoid Embolisation?

Patients with bleeding piles that have not responded to medical treatment, or who have failed other treatments, may be considered for this interventional radiology procedure. Your doctor might discuss it if:

Bleeding Keeps Returning

You have bleeding during bowel movements that keeps coming back.

Medicines Haven’t Helped

Your symptoms have not improved with medication and lifestyle changes.

Symptoms Came Back

You have recurring symptoms after earlier treatment for piles.

Surgery Is More Complex

You have underlying health conditions that make surgery more complex.

Hemorrhoid embolisation cannot be used for all patients or for all types of hemorrhoids. Careful medical assessment is essential in determining the source of the bleeding and the right course of treatment.

At IRFacilities, the procedure is considered suitable only after Dr. Sandeep Sharma discusses your symptoms, medical history and investigation reports with you.

Benefits and Recovery After Hemorrhoid Embolisation

A significant benefit of hemorrhoid embolisation is that the blood vessels to the hemorrhoids are addressed without making incisions around the anus. Because the technique requires access only through a tiny opening in your wrist or groin, there is no surgical wound in the area of concern.

The benefits may include:

  • Less pain after the procedure compared to traditional hemorrhoid removal
  • No stitches around the anal area
  • Preservation of the anal muscles
  • Many patients are able to walk on the same day, if they are comfortable and advised so

Complete recovery depends on the patient's condition and how they respond to treatment. Following the procedure, some patients may have sensations of rectal fullness or mild discomfort. Bleeding may improve slowly over the coming weeks as the affected vessels adapt.

Dr. Sandeep Sharma will guide you through aftercare, including advice on medication, instructions for follow-up and guidelines for resuming regular activities.

Cost of Hemorrhoid Embolisation in India

The cost of hemorrhoid embolisation in India varies with factors such as the patient's health condition, the number of arteries to be treated, hospital amenities and the overall treatment plan.

At IRFacilities, the cost of hemorrhoid embolisation is estimated at around ₹1,25,000 (₹1.25 lakh). Please note: the cost of treatment may change based on the investigations conducted and the treatment required.

Before treatment, patients are recommended to contact Dr. Sandeep Sharma and share their related reports. The treatment cost and procedure details can be confirmed before the treatment.

Coverage may be available under some health insurance plans if the procedure meets the insurer's medical policy and guidelines. Patients should verify coverage, documentation requirements and pre-approval with their insurance provider before receiving treatment.

Selecting the right specialist matters just as much as knowing the price. A qualified interventional radiologist will assess your condition and inform you of the treatment options.

Choosing the Right Specialist

Dr. Sandeep Sharma specialises in minimally invasive procedures performed through image-guided interventional radiology techniques. Patients with bleeding piles may be offered hemorrhoid embolisation as an alternative to surgery if it is appropriate for their circumstances.

Each patient's condition, symptoms and history are assessed by Dr. Sandeep Sharma before suggesting the appropriate course of treatment. The procedure uses live imaging to direct a tiny catheter to the arteries feeding the hemorrhoids, and is performed through a small puncture in an artery rather than cuts made around the anus.

For consultations, patients can visit the team at Shivalik Hospital, Sector 69, Mohali or the IRFacilities centre at Sector 23A, Gurugram.

The objective is to give clear medical advice at every stage, from first consultation and diagnosis to planning and follow-up. If you have recurring bleeding piles, contact Dr. Sandeep Sharma to see if you are a candidate for hemorrhoid embolisation.
