Active clinical trials for "Rectal Prolapse"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of endoluminal rectal prolapse repair under sedation and local anesthesia using CO2 colonoscopy to fix the rectum with sutures to the abdominal wall under needlescopic control. Further, investigators will evaluate the short and long-term clinical outcomes after this novel approach to treating rectal prolapse.

The aim of this study is to define the significance of the distance of the staple line to the dentate line of the anal canal in the efficacy of the Longo's intervention.

Observatory of Materiovigilance After Surgery of Urinary Incontinence or Prolapse in Women Implantable medical devices (meshes) used in pelvic organ prolapse surgery (genital prolapse, rectal prolapse), or incontinence surgery may be source of severe complications.

Incarceration and necrosis of rectal prolapse is rare and often requires urgent management. Perineal rectosigmoidectomy (Altemeir procedure) is a reasonable technique for this condition. The need for a diverting stoma depends on the patient's condition and the experience and judgement of the surgeon. A literature review was performed to determine optimal management of incarcerated and necrotic rectal prolapse, and to determine the indication for fecal diversion.

The objective of the study will be to evaluate the clinical and functional outcome of patients with obstructed defecation sndrome (ODS) associated to internal rectal prolapse, treated with transanal prolassectomy (STARR) surgery compared to those treated with laparoscopic ventral rectopexy (LVR).

from December 2016 to July 2019, 36 elderly co-morbid patients with rectal prolapse were involved in this study which is performed in the GIT surgery unit of Zagazig University Hospital. the investigators used a modified linear stapler resection technique for the rectal prolapse. Postoperative follow up was done for one year to evaluate functional outcome, operative time, hospital stay and complications

The aim of the study is to compare Delorme operation alone or with post anal repair and levatorplasty for treating complete rectal prolapse.consecutive patients who were treated for complete rectal prolapse at the Colorectal Surgery Unit were eligible for the study.The patients were randomized into two groups: Group I: consisted of patients were subjected to delorme operation only. Group II: consisted of patients were subjected to delorme operation with post anal repair and levatorplasty.

After resection of diseased segments of the large intestine, the continuity of the intestine has to be restored. This can be done by suturing or with so called stapling devices. In addition since 2 centuries compression rings are used to connect the intestine after resection. The NITICAR27 device is a novel compression anastomosis device. The investigators want to prove if this novel device can be compared to commonly used stapling devices concerning anastomotic leakage, bleeding and stenosis.

No randomized controlled trial (RCT) has compared no rectopexy to rectopexy for external full-thickness rectal prolapse (FTRP). This study was performed to test the hypothesis that recurrence rates for FTRP following no rectopexy are not inferior to those for rectopexy. Method: This is a multicenter randomized non-inferiority trial. Eligible patients were randomized to no rectopexy or rectopexy. The no rectopexy arm was defined as abdominal surgery with rectal mobilization only. The rectopexy arm was defined as abdominal surgery with mobilization and pexy. Sigmoid resection was not randomized and was added in the presence of constipation. The endpoint was recurrence rates defined as presence of external FTRP after surgery. A pre-RCT meta-analysis suggested a sample size of 251 patients based on a 15% expected difference in the 5-year cumulative recurrence rate. Recurrence-free curves will be generated and compared using the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test, respectively. A Bonferroni adjustment was used. An adjusted p value of <0.01 was considered significant.

This prospective randomized pilot study is aimed to verify if the operative time of a standard laparoscopic ventral rectopexy for the treatment of severe rectal prolapse could be further reduced using a continuous locked suture vs. conventional single 6-points suture for mesh fixation.
