About the Procedure

What is Haemorrhoid Artery Embolisation?

Haemorrhoid embolisation is a minimally invasive procedure that targets the blood vessels responsible for haemorrhoid development.

It is suitable for patients who experience bleeding from internal haemorrhoids and prefer to avoid more invasive options such as haemorrhoidectomy, stapling surgery, or rubber band ligation.

The procedure is an outpatient procedure, meaning you are able to go home on the same day. It is performed at the Interventional Radiology suite at Liverpool Hospital and Southwest Private Hospital.

During the procedure, Dr Osman will insert a small catheter into an artery and navigate it through the body to reach the rectal artery. Coils are then placed in the artery to cut off the blood supply to the haemorrhoid.

Patient Testimonials

“I can’t thank Dr Osman enough for his amazing care during my treatment. He made everything super clear and answered all my questions making me feel comfortable always. The procedure went smoothly and now I’m finally feeling relief from my symptoms.”
“I had a great experience with Dr Osman while dealing with some pretty uncomfortable bleeding from haemorrhoids which had led to multiple hospital admissions. I was really worried about surgery so this was a great option for me personally. Dr Osman explained how the embolisation works so I was extremely comfortable with going forward with the procedure.”
