Anal stenosis is a late hemorrhoidectomy complication. Sphincterotomy and various anoplasty techniques are used for treatment severe anal stenosis, such as the C flap, House flap, U flap, and rotational S flap, but no procedure is ideal for every patient. We review 2 cases of severe circular anal stenosis. Their complaints included narrow caliber of the stool and feeling unsatisfied defecation. Excision of scar tissue using the circular technique was followed by reconstruction using the bilateral rotational S flap procedure. At the 1-year follow-up, the patient had complaints about neither defecation nor pain, and no longer needed laxative agents. In conclusion, the bilateral rotational S flap technique should be considered as a viable treatment because it can also prevent the occurrence of restenosis, especially given the consideration of adequate blood supply.
