Abstract:
This study has been performed at the Department of General Surgery, Zagazig University Hospital and King Saud Hospital, Oniza, KSAduring the period from November 1998 to September 2008.Twentyadult patients (6 males and 14 females with a mean age of 55 years) with complete rectal prolapse were eligible for the study, Where Delorme's procedure and postanal repairwere combined. All patients presented with complete rectal prolapse at least 5 cm in length. The associated disorders included constipation (4 patients, 20\%), variable degrees of incontinence (15 patients, 75\%). Only one patient had no associated functional problems. The median follow up period was 65 months. There was no mortality and immediate postoperative complications developed in 4 patients (20\%). Recurrence of the prolapse occurred in two patient. Eleven patients (73.3\%) (11/17) with faecal incontinence showed postoperative improvement and 4 patients failed to improve. The 4 patients presented with constipation were all improved postoperatively. We conclude that the combination of Delorme's procedure and postanal repair in the treatment of complete rectal prolapse in adults is a safe procedure that corrects the anatomical defects and improves the functional outcome. We recommend use of this method in the treatment of complete rectal prolapse especially in the elderly who are complaining of faecal incontinence.
