Device typeHaemorrhoid ligator: A hand-held manual surgical instrument designed to deploy a ligature (e.g., a latex rubber band) to internal haemorrhoids for their removal through blood flow occlusion. It is typically made of high-grade stainless steel, and has a long shaft with a profiled clamp or grip at the distal end for holding multiple ligatures. The surgeon mechanically operates the distal clamp or grip with a handle(s) to release and deploy the ligatures as needed. This is a reusable device.
