Diagnosing Internal Hemorrhoids with Prolapse Changes

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, a 56-year-old man with hematokinesia and small adenomas detected during a colonoscopy is shown. The focus is on the area immediately to the right of the instrument, which is a whitish area. The diagnosis of prolapse change is made, specifically on an internal hemorrhoid, which can cause rectal bleeding or prolapse symptoms. There is no indication of a mass effect or irregular edges. The ulceration observed has a smooth edge at the junction with intact mucosa. This kind of change can occur without significant hemorrhoids, as it may be caused by mucosal prolapse in the distal rectum.
