Insights
Sclerosing therapy effectively treated rectal prolapse in 119 children. This minimally invasive approach yielded favorable outcomes, with patients maintaining an active regimen post-treatment.
Area of Science:
- Pediatric Surgery
- Gastroenterology
Context:
- Rectal prolapse is a common condition in children.
- Sclerosing therapy offers a less invasive treatment option.
Purpose:
- To evaluate the efficacy of active sclerosing therapy for pediatric rectal prolapse.
Summary:
- 119 children underwent sclerosing therapy for rectal prolapse.
- Outpatient preparation and a 14-day hospital stay were standard.
- Favorable immediate and long-term results were observed.
Impact:
- Sclerosing therapy is a viable and effective treatment for pediatric rectal prolapse.
- Minimally invasive procedures can achieve positive clinical outcomes.
Abstract:
Active sclerosing therapy was performed in 119 children with prolapse of the rectum. The examination and preparation of the patients for the sclerosing therapy was carried out in the out-patient clinic. The patients had an active regimen after such a therapy. The patients stayed at the hospital for 14 days. The immediate and remote results were favourable.
