Laparoscopic Rectopexy

Laparoscopic rectopexy is a surgical procedure used to treat rectal prolapse. This condition is characterized by a protrusion of the rectum through the anus, often caused by a weakness or total loss of the normal support structures of the rectum. Rectal prolapse is characterized by a number of symptoms, including bleeding, severe discomfort, mucus leakage, and fecal incontinence.

While a rectal prolapse may cause significant pain and disturbance in a person’s life, it is totally curable with laparoscopic rectopexy, a minimally invasive surgery intended to restore damaged or compromised rectal support systems. Rectopexy surgery, which is a laparoscopic technique, is often conducted via a very small incision in the abdomen. A laparoscope is then introduced through the incision and precisely positioned to provide the surgeon with enough view to complete the procedure.

How is laparoscopic rectopexy performed?

During a laparoscopic rectopexy, the patient is given anesthetic before the surgery begins. The surgery then begins, with the surgeon making a few small incisions in the patient’s abdomen through which a laparoscope (a thin medical instrument with a high-intensity light and a high-resolution camera at its end) and other surgical tools designed specifically for laparoscopic procedure are inserted to repair the prolapsed rectum.

Can rectal prolapse reoccur after laparoscopic rectopexy?

The chances of recurrence are extremely low after laparoscopic rectopexy because the surgeons use surgical mesh instead of regular stitches to fix the protruding rectum. The surgical mesh keeps the rectum in place, preventing the patient from having a repeat prolapsed rectum.

What precautions should a patient take after a laparoscopic rectopexy?

Drink plenty of water and other fluids, such as fruit juices and coconut water, and eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables (after the soft diet phase is over)
Sports and other outside activities should be avoided.
Do not engage in any vigorous exercise, including heavy lifting.
Take plenty of rest and sleep
Wear loose clothes and keep your surgical wounds fresh and clean to avoid infections.
Check in with your doctor for post-surgery check-ups.
Your doctor may advise you to use stool softeners after surgery to avoid constipation and recurring prolapsed rectum.
