Abstract:
Objective To explore the feasibility and efficacy of laparoscopic rectopexy with peritoneal strips for severe complete rectal prolapse (SCRP) in children. Methods From August 2004 to October 2008,6 patients (aged 2 to 6 years with a mean of 3.5) with SCRP were treated in our hospital. The clinical data of the patients were reviewed. Under the laparoscope,two L-shaped peritoneal strips with the pedicle were cut from the incrassated and slack peritoneum of the pelvic cavity on bilateral sites of the rectum,and then were folded and sutured with the lateral wall of the free rectum with the ends being stitched on the fascia in front of the sacral promontory to suspend the rectum. Afterwards,the incisal margin of the peritoneum was sutured together with the anterior wall of the rectum in order to embed the peritoneal strips and reconstruct the pelvic peritoneum. Results All of the 6 cases of laparoscopy were completed successfully with a mean operation time of (120?24) min (ranged from 95 to 210 min). The blood loss was less than 10 ml in all of the cases. The patients received a mean of 28-month follow-up (range,6 to 54 months),during the period,none of them had recurrence or abnormal bowel movement. Conclusions Laparoscopic rectopexy with peritoneal strips is an effective and satisfactory treatment for SCRP with minimal invasion,quick recovery and a low-recurrence rate.
