AIM: to analyze basic medical care characteristics for hemorrhoidal disease (HD) in federal subjects of Russia in 2018. MATERIALS AND METHODS: the study is based on the summary data of the annual statistical observation form «Report of the chief coloproctologist of the subject of the Russian Federation» for 2018, which includes the level of outpatient treatment for HD per 100,000 of the population, the number of outpatient coloproctologists, the number of hospitalized patients for HD, the rate of patients hospitalized for emergency indications and number of coloproctological beds. RESULTS: in 2018 in Russia there were 304.9 outpatient visits per 100,000 thousand of the population for HD (Me=304.9; Q1=236.1; Q3=401.2). Number of coloproctologists was 0.23 per 100,000 (Me=0.23; Q1=0.13; Q3=0.32), and no correlation between these indicators was found (r=0.18; p=0.09). The hospitalization rate for HD was 36.8 (Me=36.8; Q1=30.5; Q3=44.7). There were 2.68 coloproctological beds per 100,000 (Me=2.68; Q1=1.95; Q3=3.35), and the percentage of patients with HD hospitalized in an emergency hospital was 34.0% (Me=34.0; Q1=24.0; Q3=45.0). There was no correlation between the number of patients treated in a hospital and the proportion of emergency hospitalizations in patients with hemorrhoids (r=0.1; p=0.38). CONCLUSION: in 2018, at least half a million patients with HD have got an outpatient consultation of coloproctologist. A significant staff shortage in specialists remains, and unresolved organizational problems require further studies.
