Core Tip	Stapled hemorrhoidopexy (SH) is widely used to treat grade III and IV hemorrhoids. While it offers advantages such as reduced postoperative pain and faster recovery, its effectiveness for advanced hemorrhoidal disease remains controversial. In this retrospective, single-center study, we analyzed the clinical outcomes of 77 patients who underwent SH. We focused particularly on recurrence rates after SH. Our observations suggest that SH is an inappropriate treatment for grade IV hemorrhoids due to a significantly higher recurrence rate.
