Laparoscopic rectopexy has been introduced in these past ten years offering lower recurrence rate with less invasion and lower morbidity. We report our surgical procedure and outcome of laparoscopic posterior mesh rectopexy.
Surgical procedure: Under 10mmHg pneumoperitoneum,and 2 ports 0f 5 mm right illiac region at mid-clavicular line and one port of 5mm left illiac region in mid-clavicular line done.The sigmoid colon and the rectum were fully mobilized. 10X6cm polypropylene mesh(T-shaped) was fixed to the presacral fascia with tackers. The rectum was wrapped 2/3 around with the mesh and fixed with 2-0 non-absorbable suture materials. Peritoneum was repaired by 3-0 absorbable suture materials.
