About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Rectocele focused on measuring Anterior rectocele, laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy

Eligibility Criteria

30 Years - 60 Years (Adult)FemaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: multiparous female patients. aged between 30 and 60 years who were diagnosed with complex anterior rectocele- more than 3cm after failed medical treatment- with history of either vaginal delivery or caesarian section. complex rectocele was one having any of the following features: size > 3 cm in diameter, associated enterocoele or internal rectal prolapse Exclusion Criteria: paradoxical contraction of puborectalis muscle (anismus), complete external rectal prolapse fecal incontinence other benign anal conditions those who are unfit for surgery due to associated severe co-morbidities

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy arm

Arm Description

those who were underwent laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy for rectocele.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

changes in the Wexner constipation score
improvement in constipation, if the score is decreasing this means improving

Secondary Outcome Measures

sexual function changes
changes in the sexual function score post operative (Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire score(PISQ-12). The lower the score the better the function.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The ideal surgical strategy for treating complex rectocele remains a topic for debate, with the transanal, transperineal, and transvaginal approach and the abdominal approach being at conflict with one another. While the transvaginal repair is more popular among gynecologists, the trans abdominal approach has become increasingly common among colorectal surgeons, in part due to the rising demand for minimally invasive surgery.
Detailed Description
For the treatment of rectoceles and ODS in general, the laparoscopic method has recently come to light as a promising alternative. Laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy (LVMR) was originally described for the management of rectal prolapse. However, It was also recommended with encouraging results for the treatment of large symptomatic rectocele. The present study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LVMR for complex rectocele.
