This novel technique seems to be safe and effective in the treatment of outlet obstruction caused by the combination of intussusception and rectocele. Randomized trials are required to confirm these findings.

Both techniques are safe and effective in the treatment of outlet obstruction; nevertheless, the double Stapled Trans-Anal Rectal Resection seems to be preferable due to less pain, absence of dyspareunia, reduced rectal sensitivity threshold volume and absence of residual rectocele at defecography.
