Haemorrhoid prolapse: repositioning without excision
HAL-RAR technique (Doppler-guided artery ligation) in Cluj-Napoca
When haemorrhoids prolapse, the right treatment can return the tissue to its place without painful excision. HAL-RAR ties off the arteries feeding the haemorrhoids and repositions the lining.

Instead of cutting tissue, HAL-RAR ties off the arteries feeding the haemorrhoids and repositions the lining, which reduces pain.
How long is recovery?
You usually return to light activities within 1–3 days, with a few days of taking it easy.
How much does it cost?
The cost depends on the stage. We set it transparently at the consultation.
Can the symptoms return?
