Long‐term outcome of laparoscopic mesh rectopexy for solitary rectal ulcer syndrome

Abstract: Laparoscopic mesh rectopexy offers a minimally invasive option for selected patients who remain severely symptomatic despite maximal conservative therapy for SRUS, with demonstrable ulcer healing and long-term improvement in symptoms and quality of life. Larger studies are required to fully evaluate its efficacy compared to 'conventional' surgical options.

“…Treatment can be aimed at resolving the behavioural disorder using biofeedback 18 or correcting the result of altered defaecation. Surgical treatments for MPSRUS include laparoscopic mesh rectopexy 19 or local excision of the ulcer 20 . The latter is, however, associated with a high recurrence rate.…”

“…Surgical treatments include rectal prolapse correction, ulcer excision, and, rarely, colostomy [2,5] . In paediatric patients rectopexy seems to be effective in cases in which rectal prolapse is implicated [3,8,16,17] . Resection proctectomy may be reserved for patients with intractable rectal pain and bleeding who do not respond to other surgical treatments [2] .…”
