Video Tip: Recognizing Hemorrhoidal Banding Scars | December 2022-Recognizing Hemorrhoidal Banding Scars

Recognizing Hemorrhoidal Banding Scars

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, a 62-year-old man is undergoing his second screening colonoscopy. During the procedure, white flat areas are observed in the distal rectum through retroflexion. The video explains that these white areas are actually scars, specifically from hemorrhoidal banding. The scars are pointed out using arrows, with the biggest scar located in the lower left of the photograph. The video suggests that these scars are likely a result of effective treatment as there are minimal internal hemorrhoids visible. This ASG video tip is sponsored by an educational grant from Braintree, a part of Cibela Pharmaceuticals, makers of SUTAB.
