How is rectal mucosal prolapse surgery performed

If rectal mucosal prolapse is severe, it is necessary to consider surgical treatment, but sometimes recurrence may occur. Therefore, we cannot ignore the prevention of liver disease in life, strengthen nutrition, and pay attention to dietary choices to prevent constipation.

1. Surgical treatment

For adults with incomplete prolapse or mild complete prolapse, if the sphincter tension is normal or slightly weak, treatment similar to triple hemorrhoidectomy or rubber band ligation can be performed, or sclerosing agent injection can be used. If the sphincter is loose, anal ring reduction surgery or sphincteroplasty may be considered. The treatment of complete rectal prolapse in adults is mainly surgical, and there are four surgical approaches: transabdominal, transperineal, abdominoperineal and sacral. There are many surgical methods, but each has its own advantages, disadvantages and recurrence rate. No one surgical method can be used for all patients. Sometimes several surgical methods are needed for the same patient.

2. Prevention

1. Pay attention to increasing nutrition and regularizing your life. Do not squat on the potty for a long time. Develop the habit of regular bowel movements to prevent dry stools. You can take a hot water bath after defecation and before going to bed to stimulate the contraction of the anal sphincter, which has a positive effect on preventing rectal prolapse.

2. Women should get enough rest during and after delivery to protect the normal function of the anal sphincter. If you have uterine prolapse and visceral prolapse, you should seek timely treatment.

3. Patients with habitual constipation or difficulty in defecation should not only eat more fiber-containing foods but also avoid exerting excessive force during defecation.

4. Do ani-levator exercises regularly to promote the movement of the ani-levator muscles, which has the effect of enhancing the function of the anal sphincter and plays a certain role in preventing this disease.

5. Actively eliminate various inducing factors, such as cough, long-term sitting or standing, diarrhea, long-term cough, enteritis and other diseases, especially for infants and young children.

3. Diet

Rectal mucosal prolapse refers to the prolapse of the gastric wall mucosa through the pylorus into the bulb of the duodenum. This disease is mainly related to inflammation of the gastric antrum; it is more common in male patients aged 30-66 years old. Most patients with rectal prolapse suffer from insufficient vital energy and are mostly suffering from deficiency syndrome. In normal times, you should eat more foods such as fungus, eggplant, yam, water chestnut, chicken, mutton, figs, coriander, etc. to increase nutrition and make up for the deficiency.
