Rectal Prolapse

Rectal prolapse have a protrusion (prolapse) of the rectum through the anus. The rectum folds on itself and protrudes through the anal canal. Patient may also have such symptoms as a change in bowel habits, rectal bleeding, mucus drainage, anorectal pain or fecal incontinence. A rectal prolapse is thought to occur because of a loss or weakness of the normal support structures for the rectum.

Laparoscopic rectopexy is a surgery to repair a rectal prolapse, a protrusion of the rectum through the anus. In this surgery, the rectum is restored to its normal position in the pelvis.

WHY GO FOR A LAPAROSCOPIC RECTOPEXY AND NOT OPEN RECTOPEXY?

Rectopexy can be executed by both open and laparoscopic procedures. However, the laparoscopic technique is highly approved by the laparoscopic surgeons because it is a minimally-invasive surgery, and a laparoscopic surgical method has immense advantages and a high success rate than conventional open surgery. Some of the advantages of a laparoscopic rectopexy, when compared to an ordinary open rectopexy, are as follows:

• Minimum incisions or cuts
• Low or no blood loss
• Minimal chances of infection
• Less pain
• Zero complications
• Shorter hospital stay
• Speedy recovery
• Higher success rate
• Completely safe

The chances of recurrence is extremely low after laparoscopic rectopexy as the surgeons after fixing the protruding rectum make usual stitches with a surgical mesh instead. The surgical mesh ensures that the rectum does not come out of its place, thus saving the patient from a recurring prolapsed rectum.
