HaemorrhoidsBack Ground They are part of the normal anoderm cushions They are areas of vascular anastamosis in a supporting stroma of subepithelial smooth muscles. The contribute 15-20% of the normal resting pressure and feed vital sensory information . 3 main cushions are found L lateral R anterior R posterior But can be found anywhere in anus Prevalence is 4% Miss labelling by referring physicians and patients is common This combination is only in 19%

3 main processes: 1. Increased venous pressure 2. Weakness in supporting fibromuscular stroma 3. Increased internal sphincter tone Risk Factors HaemorrhoidsPathogensis

Anal Fissure Linear tears in the anal mucosa exposing the internal sphincter 90% are posterior Caused mainly by trauma ( hard Stool). Followed by increased sphincter tone and ischemia. Other causes: IBD, Ca, Chronic infections

Pilonidal Sinus Pathogenesis: A sinus tract at natal cleft resulting from: Blockage of hair follicle Folliculitis Abscess followed by sinus formation. Hair trapping Foreign body reaction The sinus tract is cephald Associated with: Caucasians Hirsute Sedentary occupations Obese Poor hygeine

History Age Hemorrhoids- common all ages but are uncommon below the age of 20 years. Perianal haematomata- occurs at all ages Fissure-in-ano-(acute) quite common in children Anorectal abscess- common between the ages of 20 and 50 years. Pilonidal sinus- rare before puberty and in people over 40 years.

Slide 47 -

History Sex Hemorrhoids- common in both sexs Perianal haematomata- occurs at all ages Fissure-in-ano- common in men Anorectal abscess- more common in men Pilonidal sinus- more common in men Prolapse of rectum- more common in women

Slide 48 -

History Principal symptoms of rectal and anal conditions: Bleeding Pain Tenesmus Change in bowel habit Change in the stool Discharge pruritis

Slide 49 -

History - Bleeding Can be fresh or altered Example of altered is melaena Black tarry stool Recognizable blood may appear in four ways: Mixed with faeces On the surface of the faeces Separate from the faeces: after/unrelated to defaecation On the toilet paper after cleaning

Slide 50 -

History - Bleeding Diagnosis of anal conditions which present with rectal bleeding Bleeding but no pain: Blood mixed with stool = ca of colon Blood streaked on stool = ca of rectum Blood after defaecation = hemorrhoids Blood and mucus = colitis Bleeding + pain = fissure or carcinoma of anal canal The most common causes of rectal bleeding in patients who visit primary care physicians are hemorrhoids, fissures and polyps.

Slide 51 -

History – Anal pain Diagnosis of anal conditions which present with pain Pain alone Fissure ( pain after defaction) Proctalgia fugax (pain spontaneously at night) Anorectal abscess Pain with bleeding Fissure Pain with a lump Perianal haematoma Anorectal abscess Pain, lump and bleeding Prolapsed haemorrhoids/rectum Carcinoma of the anal canal

Slide 52 -

Anorectal examination One of the most important examinations in a patient with abdominal disease. Still its the least popular segment of the entire physical examination. Should not be omitted from your examination, especially in middle-aged and older patient, why? risks missing an asymptomatic carcinooma Can be done in numerous positions: Left Lateral (Sims’) position. The usual position when the patient is in bed. Turn patient on to left side with pelvis vertical. Ask patients to draw knees up to chest with buttocks on the side of the couch The Knee-elbow position. Patient kneeling on couch, resting on elbows, of particular use when palpating the prostate and seminal The Dorsal Position. This position with the patient lying on the back with right leg flexed is useful when the patient is in severe pain, and movement is contra-indicated. Enables assessment of rectovesical pouch in abdominal emergencies. Lithotomy. best position for examination but not always available.

Slide 53 -

Anorectal examination External inspection: Piles. Skin tags (normal, Crohn's, hemorhoids). Rectal prolapse. Anal fissure. Fistula. Anal warts. Carcinoma. Signs of incontinence, diarrhea. External inspection (straining): Ask pt. to strain. Rectal prolapse upon straining. Hemorrhoid prolapse. Incontinence. Ask if straining is painful

Slide 54 -

Anorectal examination palpation Lubricate index finger. Insert finger slowly, assessing external sphincter tone as enter. Male: palpate prostate [anterior of rectum]:• Hard nodule (prostate cancer).• Tender (prostatitis). Female: palpate cervix [anterior of rectum]:• Mass in pouch of Douglas. Rotate finger, palpating along left, posterior, right walls. Withdraw finger. Wipe lubricant off pt. Ask if was significant pain during examination.

Slide 55 -

Anorectal examination Inspect withdrawn fingertip for: Blood, melaena Stool color Pus Mucous. Other examination would be systemically preformed and depends on the case you have e.g swelling such as anorectal abscess or ulcers.

Acute Ano-rectal Conditions

Slide 57 -

Rectal prolapse Rectal prolapse is the abnormal movement of the rectal mucosa down to or through the anal opening. Mucosal prolapse Complete rectal prolapse

Slide 58 -

Rectal prolapse Mucosal prolapse is more often seen in children below 3 yrs of age following an attack of diarrhoea or whooping cough , and if it occurs in adult is usually associated with haemrrhoids. Complete rectal prolapse is seen more commonly in elderly women who have a habit of excessive straining during defecation. Rectal prolapse is often associated with other conditions such as: * Pinworms(Enterobiasis) * Cystic fibrosis * Malnutrition and malabsorption (Celiac disease) * Constipation * Prior trauma to the anus or pelvic area

Slide 59 -

Rectal prolapse Symptoms:The main symptom is a protrusion of a reddish mass from the anal opening, especially following a bowel movement. Treatment : * Treating the underlying condition * In children, Conservative treatment * The rectal mass may be returned to the rectum manually * Surgical correction for complete rectal prolapse Complications * Constipation * Malnutrition or malabsorption * Other complications of underlying condition

Slide 60 -

Proctitis An inflammation of the rectum causing discomfort, bleeding, and occasionally, a discharge of mucus or pus, And the anus may also be involved. Causes: * Sexually-transmitted diseases(gonorrhea, herpes, Syphilis ,chlamydia, and lymphogranuloma venereum. * Non-sexually transmitted infections( Beta-hemolytic streptococcus , Amoebic dysentry, Bilharzial dysentry) *Autoimmune diseases (Ulcerative colitis and crohn’s disease) * Tuberculous proctitis * AIDS *Radiation Proctitis * noxious agents

Slide 61 -

Proctitis Symptoms: pain, discomfort rectal bleeding rectal discharge, pus stools, bloody constipation Tenesmus *Tests: proctoscopy sigmoidoscopy rectal culture

Slide 62 -

Proctitis Treatment: treatment of the underlying cause usually cures the problem. Proctitis caused by infection is treated with antibiotics specific for the causative organism. Corticosteroid or mesalamine suppositories may relieve symptoms in Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.

Slide 63 -

Benign tumours of the rectum(POLYPS) A polyp is a lesion that projects into the lumen Polyps are commonly found in vascular organs Polyps bleed easily The rectum and sigmoid colon are common sites of polyps Symptoms and signs of polyps * passage of blood and mucus PR * Rarely obstruction or intussusception

Slide 64 -

Types of Polyps Juvenile Polyps Commonest form of polyps in children Are red pedunculated spheres lesions Can occur throughout large bowel but are most common in the rectum Usually present before 12 years Present with Prolapsing lump or rectal bleeding Have little malignant potential Treated by local endoscopic resection

Slide 65 -

Adenomatous Polyps Are pedunculated lesions Mainly occur in the rectum and sigmoid colon Are often asymptomatic but may produce anaemia from chronic occult bleeding May give rise to crampy pain May secrete mucus Have malignant potential Treated by colonoscopic polypectomy

Slide 66 -

Villous Papillomas Are flat, sessile lesions within the rectum Secrete copious amount of mucus producing spurious diarrhoea Present with hypokalemia Significant risk of malignant change Treated by transanal excision of complete lesion If lesion is extensive, mucosal proctectomy and coloanal anastomosis should be done

Slide 67 -

Familial Polyposis Is an autosomal dominant syndrome diagnosed when a patient has more than 100 adenomatous polyps Due to mutation on long arm of chromosome 5 May be asymptomatic but bleeding,, abdominal pain and diarrhoea are all likely symptoms The risk of devoloping carcinoma is virtually 100% within 15 years The most appropriate treatment is panproctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis
