Multidisciplinary management of Grade III circumferential mixed hemorrhoids in a patient with Marfan syndrome receiving long-term anticoagulation: a case report
To report the case of a patient with Marfan syndrome requiring complex management of Grade III circumferential mixed hemorrhoids while on long-term anticoagulation, highlighting the clinical challenges and management strategies involved.
Key Findings:
The patient had persistent Grade III circumferential mixed hemorrhoids unresponsive to conservative management, necessitating surgical intervention.
Surgical intervention was performed with minimal intraoperative blood loss, demonstrating the effectiveness of the MDT approach.
At 41 months follow-up, there were no recurrent prolapse or severe hemorrhagic complications, indicating successful long-term management.
Interpretation:
Surgical intervention for advanced hemorrhoids in anticoagulated patients with Marfan syndrome can be feasible when managed within a structured multidisciplinary framework, suggesting a model for similar future cases.
Limitations:
The strategies described are patient-specific and require further validation through larger studies.
The case study does not provide a broader analysis of outcomes across a larger patient population, which may limit generalizability.
Conclusion:
The case illustrates the complexity of managing hemorrhoidal disease in patients on anticoagulation and the importance of individualized care.
