Drug-Eluting Rubber Bands for Tissue Ligation

ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2022
Rubber band ligation is a commonly used method for the removal of tissue abnormalities. Most often, rubber band ligation is performed to remove internal hemorrhoids unresponsive to first line treatments to avoid surgery.

New device for rubber band ligation of hemorrhoids

Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1994
We describe a new accessory for rubber band ligation of hemorrhoids. By using the new instrument it is possible to abscind the elastic band applied to the base of the hemorrhoidal node without entailing traumatic interventions. Of a total of 62 elastic ligatures, this device was used in the last 18 procedures, and provided excellent results.
