Proctology is the medical specialty concerned with diseases of the rectum (colon, rectum and anal canal).
Richard Wolf is dedicated to one of the oldest endoscopic examinations: proctoscopy and rectoscopy.
The minimally invasive endoscopic methods of proctoscopy and rectoscopy make it possible to diagnose rectal diseases such as hemorrhoids and anal fissures as well as tumors. Proctoscopy also allows precise detection of hemorrhoidal disease, which can be treated during the same examination by sclerotherapy or rubber band ligation.
