Overview

Retrospective analysis compares surgical outcomes in rectal prolapse, indicating tailored interventions are essential.

Key Points

  • This study aims to compare the clinical outcomes of abdominal versus perineal surgical approaches for rectal prolapse.
  • Conducted a retrospective analysis of 57 patients who underwent surgery for rectal prolapse from January 2020 to December 2023.
  • Analyzed data on demographics, surgical details, and outcomes including complications and functional improvement.
  • Abdominal approaches had longer operative times (126.88 min) and hospital stays (8.83 days) compared to perineal approaches (P < 0.001 for operative time).
  • Recurrence rate of rectal prolapse was found to be 8.77%.
  • Functional improvement occurred in 76.92% of incontinent and 68.75% of constipated patients.
