Area of Science:
- Gastroenterology
- Colorectal Surgery
- Minimally Invasive Surgery
Background:
- Rectal prolapse affects less than 0.5% of the population, presenting with symptoms like pain, incomplete defecation, and incontinence.
- Surgical treatment for rectal prolapse typically involves perineal or abdominal approaches, with a growing trend towards minimally invasive techniques.
