Mogadishu, Somalia – Dr. Sumait Hospital continues to provide advanced surgical care through its experienced medical specialists and modern treatment approaches. One of the latest success stories comes from Mr. Mohamed Aweys Daaud, who recently underwent a successful surgical procedure for fistula and hemorrhoids (baabasiir) at the hospital.
The procedure was successfully performed by Dr. Tariq Fahed, a Consultant in General and Laser Surgery with extensive experience in diagnosing and treating a wide range of general surgical conditions. Using modern surgical techniques, Dr. Tariq and his team carried out the operation safely and effectively, helping the patient begin a smooth recovery.
Understanding Fistula and Hemorrhoids
Fistula and hemorrhoids are two common conditions that affect the anal and rectal area, often causing significant discomfort and affecting a person’s daily life.
An anal fistula is a small tunnel that develops between the inside of the anal canal and the skin surrounding the anus. It commonly results from an infection or abscess and may lead to persistent pain, swelling, discharge, and recurrent infections if left untreated.
Hemorrhoids (Baabasiir) are swollen veins in the lower rectum or around the anus. They can cause pain, itching, bleeding during bowel movements, and discomfort while sitting. Although many cases can be managed with medication and lifestyle changes, some patients require surgery to achieve permanent relief, particularly when symptoms become severe or recurrent.
Early diagnosis and timely treatment are essential to prevent complications and improve a patient’s quality of life.
Expert Surgical Care
Dr. Tariq Fahed carefully assessed Mr. Mohamed’s condition before recommending surgery as the most appropriate treatment option. The operation was performed using modern surgical techniques designed to treat the underlying conditions while minimizing pain and supporting a faster recovery.
Throughout the surgical process, Mr. Mohamed received comprehensive care from a multidisciplinary healthcare team, including surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses, and recovery specialists. Every stage of his treatment—from diagnosis and pre-operative assessment to surgery and post-operative follow-up—was carefully coordinated to ensure the highest standards of patient safety and comfort.
Following the successful procedure, Mr. Mohamed showed positive progress and was able to begin his recovery under close medical supervision.
