Abstract
Day-case hemorrhoidectomy is possible with appropriate facilities, proper patient selection, excellent anesthesia, and excellent surgical technique. It enables early discharge and reduction of nosocomial infection, cancelation of the surgery, waiting time, and the cost of operation and resolves the shortage of hospital beds. The most important problem to consider is the provision of safe anesthesia, and only well-equipped hospitals can perform day-case hemorrhoidectomy.
