Abstract
Twenty-six patients with rectal procidentia were satisfactorily treated by omental pedicle graft. Ten patients had anterior resection in addition to the omental pedicle graft procedure. There was no mortality and the morbidity was low. This is a preliminary report of the procedure. The entity of internal procidentia remains ill-defined, but with new demonstrative techniques it may become clearer and receive greater attention. The omental pedicle graft procedure is recommended for cautious trial because of the short follow-up period.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
