The analysis of surgical treatment of 236 patients with combined anal canal and rectum with Surgitron radio wave surgery, 50 patients using KLS Martin high-frequency electrosurgery and 112 patients who have been traditionally operated using a metal scalpel. After surgical interventions using radio-wave and high-frequency electrosurgery devices, morphological examination of tissues was conducted to study the depth of their necrosis.Results. It has been established that the use of Surgitron, as well as the high-frequency electrosurgical apparatus "KLS Martin", reduces the duration of the surgery to 15 ± 5 minutes, reduces the volume of blood loss to 20 ± 10 ml, the need for narcotic analgesics to 2 ± 1 ml, and terms of inpatient treatment of patients up to 4 ± 1 day. The results of the morphological study indicate that the application of the above-mentioned surgical techniques leads to a negligible depth of tissue necrosis from 0.165 ± 0.11 mm using the Surgitron apparatus to 0.192 ± 0.12 mm when used with the KLS Martin apparatus, ensuring cosmetic operations.Conclusions. The use of the Surgitron radio-wave surgery and the KLS Martin electrosurgical apparatus for the treatment of patients with combined pathology of the anal canal and rectum due to insignificant tissue effects contributes to reducing the duration of the operation, reducing the volume of intraoperative blood loss, significantly reducing the pain in the postoperative period, reduction of the terms of inpatient treatment of patients, which determines their rapid medical and social rehabilitation. Also due to the minimal effect on the tissue, the healing of the postoperative wound is faster, which contributes to the formation of a delicate elastic scar and prevents the formation of scar strictures of the anal canal, as well as insufficiency of the anal sphincter in the postoperative period.
