In group 1 open haemorrhoidectomy without LIS was done and group 2 open haemorrhoidectomy with LIS was done. Results: Mean pain score of 7.07 with SD of 1.112 was found in group 1 (open haemorrhoidectomy without LIS) as compared to mean pain score of 2.53 with SD of 0.681 in group 2 (open haemorrhoidectomy with LIS).
