Rectal prolapse is a condition in which the rectum slips down and protrudes through the anus. It commonly affects elderly individuals and people with chronic constipation or weak pelvic muscles. Rectal prolapse can cause discomfort, bleeding, mucus discharge, and difficulty controlling bowel movements. Surgical treatment is often required for permanent correction.
Rectal prolapse surgery involves repositioning the rectum and securing it to prevent further prolapse. Minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques are commonly used, offering reduced pain, quicker recovery, and long-lasting results.
