Objective  To investigate clinical effects of modified Xiaozhiling injection with anal cushion suspensory fixation in treatment of prolapsed hemorrhoids. Methods  From January 2012 to June 2013, 150 hospitalized patients with Ⅱ and Ⅲ degrees internal hemorrhoids and mixed hemorrhoid, with prolapsing as the main clinical manifestations, were included prospectively, then subsequently randomly divided into a modified Xiaozhiling injection with anal cushion suspensory fixation group (observation group), a procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (PPH) group, and a classic Milligan-Morgan surgery (M-M) group. The Xiaozhiling injection with saline by 1:1 mixture was injected into the rectum submucosa and perirectal gap and the anal cushion suspensory fixation were performed for the treatment of prolapsed hemorrhoids in the observation group. The operations of the PPH group and M-M group were same as the convention. The treatment effect, hospitalization time, hospital expenses, postoperative complications, and recurrence were compared among these 3 groups. Results  ① Fourty-nine cases were cured and 1 case was improved in the observation group, 48 cases were cured and 2 cases were improved in the PPH group, 48 cases were cured and 2 cases were improved in the M-M group, the treatment effects had no significant differences among these 3 groups (χ²=0.411, P=0.814). ② The hospitalization time and hospitalization expenses of the observation group were significantly less than those of the PPH group (P<0.001) and the M-M group (P<0.001). ③ No prolapse of hemorrhoids and infection happened on day 1, 2, 3, 7, and 14 among these 3 groups. The pains of the observation group were slighter on day 1, 2, 3, 7, and 14 as compared with the PPH group (except on day 14,P<0.05) and the M-M group (P<0.05). The anus bulges had no significant difference between the observation group and the PPH group (except on day 1,P>0.05), which of the observation group were significantly slighter than those of the M-M group (P<0.05). The bleeding on day 2 and 3 and the perianal edema on day 3 had no significant difference between the observation group and the PPH group (P>0.05), which of the observation group were significantly slighter than those of the M-M group (P<0.05). The urinary retention had no significant difference on day 1–3 among these 3 groups (P>0.05). ④ The anal stenosis, anal continence, and hemorrhoids recurrence on month 1, 6, and 12 had no significant differences among these 3 groups (P>0.05). Conclusions  Modified Xiaozhiling injection with anal cushion suspensory fixation in treatment of prolapsed hemorrhoids could effectively make anal cushion fixation, eliminate main symptoms of bleeding and prolapse, preserve anal function well. It’s clinical efficacy is same as PPH and M-M methods, with a shorter hospitalization time, less hospitalization expenses, milder postoperative complications, and lower recurrence rate.
