βˆ’ Thiersch’s operation: Purse string narrowing of the anus around the index finger.

76
Q

Procedure of Posterior rectopexy

A
  1. Complete mobilization of the rectum.
  2. Rectum fixed to the sacrum by a mesh (e.g. Well s operation & Repstein s operation) or sutures (suture rectopexy).
  3. Sigmoid resection can be added to suture rectopexy (resection rectopexy).
77
Q

SE of Posterior rectopexy

A

β–ͺ Recurrence: 5%

β–ͺ Constipation: 70%

β–ͺ Incontinence: improves in 70% of cases after several methos.

Q

Advantages of Ventral mesh rectopexy
