INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Strangled rectal prolapse (RP), also known as incarcerated rectal prolapse, is a condition where the RP cannot be manually reduced.
CASE PRESENTATION: This case report describes a 48-year-old man presenting with a painful and irreducible rectal prolapse. Following failed attempts at manual reduction and the development of necrosis, emergency surgery was performed using the Altemeier procedure. This surgical technique involves resection of the rectum and colon, followed by colo-anal anastomosis and a protective ileostomy.
CLINICAL DISCUSSION: The discussion highlights the rarity of RP in young adults and the associated risk factors. It emphasizes the importance of timely intervention in irreducible cases to prevent complications such as strangulation, ulceration, infection, and pain. Various surgical options exist, but in cases of strangulation requiring emergency surgery, the Altemeier procedure is the preferred approach due to its effectiveness and low morbidity. The decision to perform laparoscopic surgery depends on patient factors and surgeon expertise.
CONCLUSION: This case illustrates the successful management of a challenging and uncommon presentation of rectal prolapse, highlighting the value of surgical intervention in cases of strangulation.
