Complications - Diathermy excision / contact destruction of anal condylomata acuminata

  1. Intraoperative complications

    • With proper technique, careful dissection and subtle intermittent hemostasis, no intraoperative complications are expected.
  2. Postoperative complications

    • In some cases, healing may be protracted. The only real problem is recurrence: Irrespective of the technique employed, all studies report a recurrence rate of 20-50%.
