What operation for recurrent rectal prolapse after previous Delorme’s procedure? A practical reality

Abstract: Delorme's procedure is a suitable treatment for rectal prolapse due to low morbidity and mortality and acceptable rate of recurrence. The management of the recurrent rectal prolapse is often restricted to the pelvic approach by the same patient-related factors that influenced the choice of the initial operation, i.e., Delorme's procedure. Early recurrence developing within days or weeks often represents a technical failure and may require abdominal rectopexy with faecal diversion.

“…In our study, we found that older age and the use of a perineal surgical approach were important predictors of recurrence of rectal prolapse. Javed et al proposed that early recurrences of DR were secondary to generalized pelvic floor weakness . Technical failures were also proposed as important reasons for early recurrences .…”

There are a range of surgical techniques available (box 1),23 but there is no consensus on which is the most effective 5. Traditionally, the open abdominal procedure was reserved for younger, fitter patients, and perineal procedures were preferred for older people as they are considered safer 3…”
