Incarcerated complete rectal prolapse managed by Altemeier's procedure.

Rectal prolapse is a complete protrusion of the rectum through the anal canal, which usually occurs in elderly women. Incarceration is a rare event and can be the first presentation of a rectal prolapse. We present the case of a 54-year-old male patient who presented with incarceration and was managed successfully with Altemeier's procedure.
