12.2 Repair of Rectal Prolapse
this operation. These results demonstrate the superiority of transabdominal techniques over extraabdominal procedures. Despite the simplicity and excellent results of transabdominal correction of rectal prolapse with Wells’ rectopexy, we feel that a less invasive procedure for correcting this benign disorder is both desirable and advisable. Performing rectopexy or a resec­tion procedure laparoscopically offers these advantages.
Indications
The indications for laparoscopic rectopexy are identical to those for Well’s rectopexy by laparotomy. If the patient has undergone a previous abdominal operation, the situation should be care­fully assessed according to the location of the laparotomy scar and the adhesions to be expected. If the patient has pronounced preoperative constipation with demonstrated elongation of the
sigmoid colon, sigmoid diverticulitis, or if a colon transit exami-
nation shows a significant delay in a defined segment of the colon, the surgeon should consider a rectopexy without implant material in combination with a colon resection. The combina­tion of sigmoid resection and rectopexy following complete mobilization of the rectum may also be performed laparoscopi­cally (see laparoscopic sigmoidectomy, chapter 11.3).
Contraindications
Extraabdominal procedures should be preferred for correction of rectal prolapse in very elderly patients and/or in patients with cardiopulmonary or other systemic risk factors contraindi­cating general anesthesia or a pneumoperitoneum.

Complications
Intraoperative Complications
− Injury to hollow organs caused by inserting the Veress needle or the laparoscope/camera trocar.
− Injury to a major vessel with resulting bleeding caused by the Veress needle or laparoscope/camera trocar.
− Thermal damage to the large or small intestine resulting from improper use of monopolar electrocautery.
− Iatrogenic injury to the large or small intestine from grasping instruments.
− Subcutaneous air emphysema resulting from improper fixa­tion of the trocar in the abdominal wall.
− Injury to a ureter.
− Bleeding from the presacral venous plexus.
− Bleeding from the mesorectum resulting from dissection in a non-anatomical plane.
Surgical Risks and Informing the Patient
The patient should be informed of the surgeon’s degree of skill and experience with this new surgical technique. Always dis­cuss any possible complications of a colorectal procedure. These include injury to the colorectal wall, bleeding, and conditions that require creation of a stoma. Aside from these specific com­plications, the patient should be aware of the general risks as-
sociated with laparoscopic operations, such as bleeding, per-
foration, and subcutaneous emphysema resulting from trocar placement. Inform the patient of the specific risk of a mesh in­fection and of the possibility of having to convert to an open procedure. Possible injuries to the ureter and lesions resulting from positioning on the operating table should be mentioned.
Specific Preparations
Administer 5−6 L of a bowel preparation with GOLYTELE. Even elderly patients will tolerate this oral preparation well in the ab-
sence of disturbed intestinal motility. Care should be exercised
in patients with cardiac insufficiency. These patients should be prepared using enemas in combination with oral laxative. Pre­operative placement of a nasogastric tube and urinary catheter is indicated.
Corrective action: If one of these serious complications occurs, immediate conversion to an open procedure is indicated. Some of the complications can be managed via laparoscopic suturing techniques if the surgeon has sufficient experience.
Postoperative Complications
− Postoperative bleeding.
− Wound infection.
− Mesh infection.
− Thrombosis.
− Embolism.
− Peritonitis and abscess formation resulting from an un­treated lesion of the large or small intestine.
Corrective action: See above.

equipment. The procedure requires two equally experienced surgeons, who stand on either side of the patient. Depending on the situation, the surgeons work with one or both hands. The assistant holding the laparoscope stands at the patient’s left shoulder. The patient’s head is sterilely draped, and the
left arm is positioned alongside the torso. A second assistant stands next to the patient’s right leg, and the operating room nurse stands next to the patient’s left leg with the instrument table. The monitor, insufflator, and light source are located between the patient’s abducted legs. The electro­cautery unit and the aspirator/irrigator set can be positioned more or less as desired.

Step-by-Step Procedure
1. Insert the trocars under laparoscopic visualization.
2. Expolore the abdomen; determine the diagnosis and opera­tive plan.
3. Separate the sigmoid colon from any attachments in the
lateral gutter to the lateral abdominal wall (see Fig. 12.5.5, p. 384).
4. Expose the left ureter (see Fig. 12.5.6, p. 385).
5. Dissect the mesosigmoid off Gerota’s fascia as far as the aorta or the iliac bifurcation, respectively (see Fig. 12.5.6, p. 385).
6. Enter the posterior fascial cleavage space from the left.
7. Retract the sigmoid colon to the left and incise the lateral rec­tal peritoneum at the level of the promontory.
8. Open the retrorectal cleavage space to the floor of the pelvis.
9. Divide the lateral ligaments to the left and right of the rec­tum.
10. Cut nonabsorbable mesh material to size.
11. Introduce the rolled mesh into the abdomen through a reduc­ing sleeve.
12. Spread the mesh out on the parietal pelvic fascia and attach it
to the fascia at the level of the promontory using staples.
13. Place interrupted laparoscopic sutures through the mesh at
the level of the promontory for additional fixation of the mesh
material.
14. For additional fixation, place interrupted sutures under la­paroscopic vision in the parietal pelvic fascia in front of the
sacrum through openings cut in the mesh.
15. After placing the mobilized and extended rectum into the mesh, suture the edges of the mesh to the lateral walls of the rectum.
16. Where necessary, a widened pouch of Douglas may be re-
duced by placing interrupted sutures in the peritoneum.

To provide broad exposure and keep the uterus from falling onto the rec­tum when the rectum is mobilized, suture the uterus and its appendages to the anterior abdominal wall (1) using a straight needle introduced through the abdominal wall (see p. 384). This exposes the pelvis and will typically reveal an intestinal hernia that manifests itself in the widened rectouterine peritoneum that also covers the posterior wall of the vagina (2).

Fig. 12.2.5 Repair of rectal prolapse. Findings in the pelvis.
A complete prolapse of the rectal wall is regularly accompanied by patho-
logical findings in the pelvis. The rectouterine pouch is typically deepened
and the posterior vaginal and anterior rectal walls are almost completely covered with peritoneal tissue. The anterior rectal wall forms the floor of the abdominal cavity and can easily be pushed through the anus with a swab. This condition will frequently be accompanied by fibrous or edema­tous thickening of the rectal wall as a result of chronic trauma from invagi-
nation.
Fig. 12.2.7 Repair of rectal prolapse. Opening the peritoneum at the pel-
vic inlet. If one cannot open the retrorectal cleavage space any further from the left, retract the sigmoid colon to the left and incise the lateral peritoneum
of the rectum at the pelvic inlet. This also provides access to the retrorec-
tal cleavage space inferior to the promontory (see Fig. 12.2.3 for key to in-
strument numbers).
Fig. 12.2.6 Repair of rectal prolapse. Entering the retrorectal cleavage space. The operation begins similarly to laparoscopic sigmoidectomy or laparo­scopic excision of the rectum. First separate the sigmoid colon from the peritoneal reflection to the lateral abdominal wall and expose the uterus from the left. After completely mobilizing the sigmoid colon along Gerota’s fascia as far as the aorta or the iliac bifurcation medial to the ure­ter, enter the retrorectal cleavage space. Between the mesorectum and the parietal pelvic fascia inferior to the promontory there will only be fine fibers of connective tissue. Divide these fibers with electrocautery or a dissecting swab. Opening the retrorectal cleavage space reveals the lateral ligaments, which are extended due to the prolapse of the rectum. Lift these ligaments with a swab (see Fig. 12.2.3 for key to instrument numbers).

Once access has been gained to the opening in the retrorectal cleavage space from the right, there will be a gap in the mesenteric attachment in­ferior to the vascular axis of the superior rectal artery, into which one can
insert a swab from the left. Use this swab to lift the mesosigmoid and me-
sorectum to permit dissecting the retrorectal cleavage space down to the floor of the pelvis.

Fig. 12.2.9 Repair of rectal prolapse. Mobilizing the rectum. To achieve complete mobilization of the rectum down to the floor of the pelvis, divide the lateral ligaments on both sides one at a time, carefully controlling bleeding with electrocautery and clips. We do not recommend dissecting the anterior fascial cleavage plane. The intestinal hernia will al­ready have widened the peritoneum of the rectouterine pouch between the posterior vaginal and anterior rectal wall (or between the rectovesical septum and the anterior rectal wall) so that further dissection would only damage the autonomic nerve fibers in this region. The only dissection necessary is a peritoneal incision if elevating the rectum places tension on the peritoneum. Sufficient elevation of the rectum may be achieved by adequately mobilizing the posterior rectum in the presacral region and by dividing the lateral ligaments on both sides.

three openings in the center of the mesh to facilitate secure fixation to the parietal pelvic fascia with laparoscopic sutures or staples. This reduces the risk of bleeding from the presacral venous plexus when the mesh is at­tached to the parietal pelvic fascia and makes it easier to control bleeding
if it does occur.

After spreading out the mesh in front of the sacrum and inferior to the promontory, attach its wide margin to the posterior parietal pelvic fascia
at the promontory with a hernia stapler (T3). Place the staples so that
they engage the edges of the mesh on one side and the fascia on the
other. Stapling through the mesh has not produced good results.

Fig. 12.2.13 Repair of rectal prolapse. Attaching the mesh with sutures. If it is not possible to attach the wide margin of the mesh to the posterior parietal pelvic fascia at the promontory with the stapler alone, one can place laparoscopic sutures (T3). Good results have been achieved with ex­tracorporeal sutures and tying introduced into the abdomen with a knot pusher.

Fig. 12.2.14 Repair of rectal prolapse. Attaching the mesh with sutures.
After attaching the margin of the mesh, attach it further to the parietal presacral pelvic fascia by placing laparoscopic interrupted sutures at the
openings in the middle of the mesh (T3). These openings permit con-
trolled suturing and help minimize the risk of bleeding from the presacral
venous plexus. Place as many sutures as are required to securely attach
the mesh to the presacral pelvic fascia.

Introduction
A two stage Hartmann procedure is an established treatment
option when dealing with complicated acute diverticulitis or
distal sigmoid and rectal perforation. The laparoscopic ap­proach to the second stage of this procedure offers many advan-
tages over the traditional open approach. Patients usually ex­perience less pain and therefore better comply with postopera-
tive instructions. Additionally, there is usually a shorter post-
operative ileus, reduced hospital stay, and a more rapid return
to daily activities.
Indications
A laparoscopic second stage Hartmann procedure can be per­formed on any patient requiring reconstruction of continuity
between a diverting end colostomy of the proximal colon seg­ment and the closed colo-rectal stump (the original Hartmann procedure) or a distal colo-rectal mucus fistula.
Contraindications
A rectal pouch longer than the shaft of a circular stapler.
Instrumentation
− General purpose laparoscopic setup
− 3 10/11 mm ports
− 2 Laparoscopic Babcock clamps
− 1 Linear stapling device
− Circular stapler sizers
− 1 Circular stapler
Anesthesia
General endotracheal.
Positioning
Lithotomy position with reverse Trendelenberg (see Fig. 12.2.1).
Complications
Complications are the same as for an open second stage Hart­mann procedure and any laparoscopic surgical procedure.
Step-by-Step Procedure
(Figs. 12.3.9 to 12.3.11)
1. A mechanical and chemical preoperative bowel preparation is performed.
2. The patient is placed on the operating room table in the lithotomy position with the abdomen and the perineum exposed in the operative field.
3. A circular incision is made around the colostomy staying as close
to the bowel as possible. This incision is extended downward through the subcutaneous tissues and toward the fascia and peri­toneum, fully mobilizing the bowel into the abdominal cavity
(Fig. 12.3.1).
4. The bowel is sized using the circular stapler sizers.
5. A suture leash is attached to the spike of the anvil rod of the
selected stapler, which is then placed through the colostomy and
into the descending colon (Fig. 12.3.2).
6. A linear stapler and scalpel are used to close and transect the
colostomy scar, taking care not to cut the “leash” which exits from the bowel through the middle of the staple line (Fig. 12.3.2).
7. The leash is pulled so that the spike of the anvil protrudes fully
through the staple line (Fig. 12.3.3).
8. The descending colon with the anvil and attached leash are re-
turned to the abdominal cavity and placed in the lateral gutter
(Fig. 12.3.4).
9. A finger is placed through the old colostomy site to sweep adhe-
sions off the anterior abdominal wall at least past the midline. If
necessary the dissection can be done sharply and under direct vi-
sion by elevating the borders of the colostomy site (Fig. 12.3.4).
10. A 10-mm port is placed in the old colostomy site and a pneumoperitoneum established (Fig. 12.3.5).
11. Under direct visualization two additional ports are placed. A 10­mm port in the infraumbilical position and another 10 mm port
just lateral to the right rectus muscle and in the same line as the old colostomy site (Fig. 12.3.5).
12. Using a Babcock clamp and laparoscopic scissors, further lysis of
adhesions is performed in the pelvis, identifying and freeing Hart-
mann’s pouch (Fig. 12.3.6).
13. The anvil and descending colon are retrieved from the lateral gut-
ter and are brought down into the pelvis. (If tension is noted as
the descending colon is brought into the pelvis, this can be re­lieved by sharp mobilization along the white line of Toldt and possibly the splenic flexure. An additional 10-mm port in the left upper quadrant can aid in the splenic flexure mobilization).
14. The cartridge of the stapler chosen for anastomosis is placed transanally and is advanced into the blind end of the rectal pouch
(Fig. 12.3.7).
15. The trocar of the cartridge shaft is advanced fully through the
midportion of the staple line of the pouch. The trocar is removed leaving only the hollow central rod protruding fully through the rectal pouch. The trocar is removed through one of the working ports (Fig. 12.3.7).
16. The anvil rod is joined with the hollow central rod of the cartridge taking care not to twist the bowel (Fig. 12.3.8).
17. Once properly positioned the stapler is closed, fired and with­drawn (Fig. 12.3.13).
18. The integrity of the anastomosis is checked.
19. The pneumoperitoneum is released and the ports are removed.
20. The fascial defects of all the 10 mm port sites are closed.

Fig. 12.3.1 Second stage Hartmann operation.
A circular incision is made around the site of the proximal colostomy. Circular dissection is continued in depth until the entire colostomy is freed and mobile. An adequate length of colon is then pulled out through the opening onto the abdominal wall.
Fig. 12.3.3 Second stage Hartmann operation.
The suture is then pulled, bringing the pointed central rod of the anvil up through the middle of the staple line.

Fig. 12.3.2 Second stage Hartmann operation. A heavy gauge suture “leash” is tied to the trocar of the anvil portion of the circular stapler, which is then placed through the colostomy and into the proximal descending colon with the suture extending out the colostomy orifice. A linear stapler is placed around the bowel just proxi­mal to the colostomy scar and fired. A scalpel is used to transect the colostomy scar while taking care not to cut the suture exiting through the middle of the staple line.

The suture is left in place to aid in the subsequent recovery of the anvil and colon, which are then placed in the abdominal cavity and stored in the lateral gutter. Through the old colostomy site the index finger is swept
along the peritoneum, lysing any adhesions within reach and clearing the undersurface of the umbilicus. This can also be done by sharp dissection under direct vision, by elevating the edges of the colostomy site.

If the fascial defect of the old colostomy site is too large for the Hassan port, it should be closed around the port with a pursestring suture. A pneumoperitoneum is then estab­lished and two additional 10/11-mm ports are placed as shown in the above diagram. Using a laparoscopic Babcock clamp and scissors through the lateral ports further lysis of adhesions into the pelvis is then performed. Mobilization of the descending colon along the white line of Toldt and possible splenic flexure mobilization may be necessary in order to bring the stump of the descending colon tension free into the pelvis. An additional 10/11-mm port in the left upper quadrant may be necessary for retraction during the splenic flexure mobilization.

Fig. 12.3.6 Second stage Hartmann operation. Hartmann’s pouch is then cleaned free of surrounding tissue using a la­paroscopic Babcock clamp and scissors. Identification of the rectal stump
can be aided by transanal insertion of a rectal probe or the cartridge head
of the circular stapler for longer stumps.
Note: A pouch longer than the length of a circular stapler shaft is a con-
traindication for this procedure. The foresight to create a pouch con-
sisting essentially of rectum during the first stage of a Hartmann pro-
cedure is essential to the success of a laparoscopic second stage.
