The aim of this procedure is to decrease vascularisation of the anal canal and to carry out a pexis to put back in place the mucuous membrane and internal hemorrhoid clusters. With the arrival of this procedure and in the years following its appearance in France in 1999, I carried out about 50 Longo procedures out of every 100 hemorrhooidectomies, however currently due to a number of postoperative complications, the longo procedure only accounts for 10 % of all hemorrhoidectomies.
