Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Collagen I:III ratio

    Pathologic assessment of the taken biopsies to examine the ratio between collagen type I and type III

    immediate after surgery

Study Arms (1)

Pathologic and functional assessment

Patients of both genders, aging below 45 years with internal or external rectal prolapse

Other: Pathologic and functional assessment

Interventions

Random biopsies will be taken from the pelvic floor muscles, external anal sphincter, and the lateral supportive ligaments of the rectum during surgical treatment of rectal prolapse whether via the abdominal or perineal approach. Tissue samples will be subjected to immunohistochemistry to calculate the ratio between collagen type I and type III, and to reveal any myopathic or degenerative changes

Pathologic and functional assessment

Study Population

Patients of both genders aging below 45 years with primary or recurrent rectal prolapse, whether internal or external prolapse, will be included. Patients above 45 years, patients with associated anorectal pathology as anal fissure, hemorrhoids or neoplasm, and patients with documented psychiatric or mental disorders will be excluded

You may qualify if:

  • Patients of both genders aging below 45 years with primary or recurrent rectal prolapse, whether internal or external prolapse

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients above 45 years, patients with associated anorectal pathology as anal fissure, hemorrhoids or neoplasm, and patients with documented psychiatric or mental disorders.
