Stapled haemorrhoidectomy and other advanced treatments for hemorrhoids are available at IRCCS Policlinico San Donato in Milan, Italy. This IRCCS-accredited hospital specializes in minimally invasive techniques, including laser and radiofrequency options. The clinic is known for providing precise care within its dedicated Coloproctology and Pelvic Floor Surgery Unit.
The medical team focuses on reducing recovery time and discomfort. They use laser and radiofrequency tools for precise interventions. These methods target the affected tissue while sparing healthy areas. For less severe cases, the clinic offers ligation and sclerosis of hemorrhoidal tissue. These procedures often take place in an outpatient or day surgery setting. This means patients can return home shortly after the treatment.
Treatment is managed by specialists in coloproctology and pelvic floor surgery. Dr. Angelo Stuto leads the unit as a General Surgeon and Proctologist. He manages the department's specialized care for pelvic floor disorders. Dr. Pierpaolo Prestianni also serves as a General Surgeon and Proctologist within the team. Both doctors focus on modern surgical solutions for hemorrhoidal pathology.
The hospital uses high-resolution anoscopy and intraoperative endoanal ultrasound for accurate mapping. These tools help the surgeons plan the most effective approach for each patient. After the procedure, the Coloproctology Unit works with the Anesthesia Unit. Together, they provide focused pain management and convalescence care. This helps make the healing process as smooth as possible.

San Donato cardiologists specialize in endovascular operations for the treatment of heart and vessel diseases. Surgeons perform them using a thin and long catheter without skin incisions. The recovery period after such a procedure is much easier compared with open surgeries and lasts only 1-2 days.
Angioplasty is a procedure to treat narrowed or obstructed arteries of the heart. There are 2 types of angioplasty — balloon surgery and stenting.
Cardiologists perform balloon operation with a small balloon placed in the vessel to increase the amount of blood flowing through the artery. After the procedure doctors put out the balloon.
Stenting is performed with a metal or plastic tube called a stent to increase artery permeability. A stent stays in the vessels for at least 10 years.
This is a minimally invasive procedure to replace a heart valve. Usually, doctors carry out a sternotomy (chest opening) to implant a new valve, but TAVI can be done with a small puncture or incision.
Cardiologists insert a catheter with an artificial valve in a vessel. Doctors open the implant like an “umbrella” near the flaps of the old valve and fixate it there. It is an image-guided operation allowing doctors precisely to control the valve movement through the vessels.
According to the San Donato data, the Arrhythmology Department is the best in Europe to treat cardiac arrhythmia.
There are 45 hospital beds and 12 twenty-four-hour ECG monitoring devices with telemedicine in the department. ECG allows to connect patients with their physicians at any time.
3 operating rooms are equipped with modern devices including the latest X-ray systems. They produce less X-ray emission than previous models and are safer for patients.
