Core Tip	Postoperative anal stenosis is a critical complication of stapled hemorrhoidopexy (SH). In this study, we report our 5-year experience of the outcomes of our modified SH technique. We found that the modified SH method is safe and effective for treating patients with grade III and IV protruding hemorrhoids. The postoperative anal stenosis rate after our modified SH was lower than that after standard SH, particularly among patients who had previously undergone interventions for hemorrhoids.
