Overview

Anoscopy is mandatory to visualize internal hemorrhoids as they are not visible on inspection of the anal verge or palapable on performing digital rectal exam.

Other Diagnostic Studies

  • Internal hemorrhoids can be viewed only using the anoscope or the flexible sigmoidoscope.
  • Hemorrhoids appear as bulging bluish mass above the dentate line.
  • If there is accompanying constitutional symptoms (e.g. weight loss) , colonoscopy should be done to exclude colon cancer.
