Procedure for prolapsed hemorrhoid (PPH) is well recognized alternative to the traditional hemorrhoidectomy, and is associated with reduced pain and earlier return to normal activity. Over the past decade, there have been reports of severe life-threatening complications after a PPH, although the incidence is very low. Rectal perforation due to staple-line dehiscence is one of the serious complications that can cause severe pelvic sepsis or a pneumoretroperitoneum. Here, the first Korean case of a pneumoretroperitoneum due to staple-line dehiscence is described.

There are few reports on major complications after stapled hemorrhoidectomy, because it recently has been introduced to treat hemorrhoids and rectal mucosal prolapse. This presentation is a case of rectovaginal fistula that developed four days after stapled hemorrhoidectomy which was performed at another clinic. In this case, a relatively simple local repair with layered closure via a transanal approach was used. It worked well and satisfied the patient, while relieving her unpleasant, distressing symptoms. In my opinion, early surgical repair of a relatively large postoperative rectovaginal fistula is valid.

This is a case report of accidental total spinal block during epidural anesthesia with 1.5% lidocaine 20 ml for hemorrhoidectomy in a 25 year old male. It could have been avoided by; a) careful technical application. b) aspiration of spinal fluid and c) use of a test dose. Management consists of the administration of a vasopressor usually with assistance of respiration until dissipation of anesthesia. He was discharged in good condition without complications on the 7th postop, day.

Fournier's gangrene is a life-threatening disorder characterized by necrotizing fasciitis of the perineal region. Because delay in diagnosis and treatment of this condition can be fatal, it is important not to overlook the symptoms. We present an unusual case of Fournier's gangrene after excision of a thrombosed hemorrhoid. A previously healthy 74-year-old female patient developed Fournier's gangrene after a hemorrhoidectomy. In spite of aggressive treatment, she eventually died. Here, we emphasize early recognition and prompt treatment of this condition, reporting an unexpected disastrous complication of a hemorrhoidectomy.
