INTRODUCTION: Rectal prolapse is a relatively common paediatric surgical condition. It has a number of benign aetiologies. Management is usually centred on regulating bowel habits. Surgery is considered after the failure of medical treatment. Numerous surgical techniques have been described with a spectrum of results.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: We adopted a limited abdominal approach to achieve a posterior rectopexy using an omental pedicle in intractable cases. This technique has not been performed in children previously.
RESULTS: From 2005 to 2008 we have applied this technique on five patients with recurrent rectal prolapse which had failed to respond to medical treatment, injection sclerotherapy or perianal cercalage. One patient had solitary rectal ulcer syndrome, and was initially treated with a defunctioning colostomy, had a concomitant sigmoidectomy performed at the time of rectopexy. None of the patients had cystic fibrosis. There were three females and two males, with a mean age of 9.6 years (4.7-14.0). No operative complications were encountered. The mean hospital stay was 5.4 days (3-8). None of the patients experienced recurrence at a mean of 2.1 years (0.2-2.8) follow up. The cosmetic result was regarded as satisfactory by all patients.
CONCLUSION: This early experience with abdominal posterior rectopexy using an omental pedicle graft is encouraging. This technique does not involve the use of synthetic material and hence the risk of infection is low.
