[Proctological emergencies in pregnant women].
Revue Médicale Suisse 2018 August 9
Hemorrhoids affect up to 85 % of pregnant women during the last two trimesters. The maximum incidence for anal fissure is 20 %. One of the common risk factors is constipation promoted during pregnancy. The history of anal pathology, the length of delivery and the baby's birth weight also promote these two entities. The treatment includes above all hygiene and dietary measures to prevent constipation and conservative measures (local anesthetics, sitz baths). Surgical procedures should be avoided and indicated only in case of failure of conservative treatment. Rectal prolapse is more rare and must be reduced manually before surgery. Measures to prevent constipation also apply.
