Summary
Chronic hemorrhoids and rectal prolapse can be challenging to treat. A modified Delorme
Area of Science:
- Colorectal Surgery
- Gastroenterology
Background:
- Obstructive defecation and rectal prolapse are common conditions.
- The procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (PPH) is a surgical option for these conditions.
Observation:
- A patient presented with symptomatic chronic circumferential prolapsed hemorrhoids.
- Previous surgical repair attempts were unsuccessful.
Findings:
- The patient was successfully managed with ablation and correction of rectal mucosal prolapse.
- A modified Delorme's procedure, similar to a stapled anopexy, was employed.
Implications:
- This modified Delorme's procedure offers a potential solution for complex hemorrhoid and rectal prolapse cases.
- It highlights the versatility of transanal procedures in managing severe anorectal conditions.
