Abstrakt     Background : The aim of this report is to analyse our results and to underline our criteria for day surgery practice. Patients and methods: Our patients are selected according to ASA criteria. Occasionally, the patients with some risk factors are selected but only when their concomitant diseases are well controlled. Results: We have treated 673 patients with the third and early fourth degree haemorrhoids. We have had patients with several minor problems causing no influence on the success of the procedure. Good haemostasis, preventing postoperative bleeding, is the most important factor. Conclusion: Among proctological procedures in haemorrhoid treatment, the PPH technique has firm and well-accepted position even in ambulatory surgery.
