Scientific title | Functional outcome after Perineal Stapled Prolapse resection (PSP) for external rectal prolapse: a prospective observational cohort study |
Study acronym | PSP |
Study objectives | Faecal incontinence improves after perineal stapled prolapse resection (PSP). |
Ethics approval(s) | Ethics Board of the Canton St. Gallen approved on the 1st December 2007 (ref: EKSG 01/124) |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | External rectal prolapse |
Intervention | For the PSP procedure spinal or general anaesthesia is recommended. In lithotripsy positioning the prolapse is completely pulled out and then axially cut open with a linear stapler at three and nine o'clock in lithotomy position. Finally, the prolapse is resected stepwise with the curved Contour® Transtar™ stapler at the prolapse's uptake. Operation duration is about 30 minutes and hospital stay is about 5 days. Peri-operative morbidity is prospectively assessed by a clinical visit at 4 weeks. Functional outcome is measured at 8 weeks by Wexner scores and recurrence rate is assessed by telephone interview at 6 and 12 months after surgery. |
Intervention type | Other |
Primary outcome measure | 1. Faecal incontinence by Wexner score 2. Constipation by Rome criteria II 3. Urinary bladder dysfunction Measured 2 months after surgery; recurrence rate is assessed at 6 and 12 months after PSP. |
Secondary outcome measures | Post-operative morbidity, collected from 30 days after the intervention. |
