Anterior Versus Posterior Rectopexy
Data comparing rectopexy techniques has been updated with two SR/MAs, long­term results from a randomized controlled trial (RCT), and a retrospective review including a large number of male patients.
A SR and MA by Lobb etal. evaluated anterior suture rectopexy versus VMR from 22 studies including 976 patients. Subgroup analysis was performed to com­pare VMR with biologic versus synthetic mesh [12]. Included were randomized and non-randomized studies of open or laparoscopic techniques with follow-up of at least 12 months. Hajibandeh et al. performed SR and MA of laparoscopic mesh rectopexy (anterior or posterior) versus posterior suture rectopexy, including 5 com­parative studies and 307 patients [13]. Follow-up ranged from 1 to 6years.
Hidaka etal. reported long-term outcomes of an RCT comparing outcomes fol­lowing laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy and laparoscopic posterior suture rec­topexy [14]. The studies randomized 75 patients in total and assessed outcomes with median follow-up of 6.1years. Previously, 1-year outcomes from this study including complications were reported by Lundby etal. [15]. Madbouly etal. com­pared laparoscopic VMR to posterior rectopexy and included 74 patients, 19% of which were male [16]. All ventral rectopexy cases incorporated mesh. The mini­mum follow-up was 2years with a range of 2–7years.
Morbidity
Lobb etal. reported an overall complication rate following anterior suture rectopexy of 8.8% and following VMR of 7.9% (p=0.509) [12]. The most common postop­erative complication following suture rectopexy was surgical site infection (1.9%) and following VMR was urinary tract infection (2.4%). Hajibandeh reported no signicant difference between laparoscopic mesh rectopexy (anterior or posterior) and laparoscopic posterior suture rectopexy in complications including surgical site infection (OR 1.48, p=0.71) [13]. There was no signicant difference in length of stay (MD: 1.54, p=0.47). No mesh erosion was reported in any of the studies at maximum follow-up.
Lundby etal. reported a similar rate of overall complications in their RCT, with 1/37 following posterior suture rectopexy and 1/38 following VMR [15]. Madbouly etal. reported similar morbidity in the 2 cohorts, 3/41in VMR and 2/33in laparo­scopic posterior rectopexy (p = 0.99) [16]. The most common complications of VMR were urinary tract infection and prolonged ileus, and 1 patient experienced mesh erosion into the vagina. The most common complication after posterior suture rectopexy was wound infection. Conversion to open was necessary in 2/41 VMR

patients and in no posterior suture rectopexy patients (p= 0.001). Operative time was signicantly longer for VMR (122min) compared to posterior suture rectopexy (105min) (p=0.001). Length of stay was signicantly longer for VMR (4.5days) versus posterior suture rectopexy (3.7days) (p=0.04).

Recurrence
In their SR, Lobb etal. reported a recurrence rate of 8.6% after suture rectopexy compared to 3.7% for VMR (p<0.001) [12]. Results from the MA showed high heterogeneity, and the difference in recurrence rates was not found to be statistically signicant (p=0.76). On subgroup analysis, there was no difference in recurrence rate comparing VMR with biologic versus synthetic mesh (4.1% versus 3.6%, respectively, p = 0.789). Hajibandeh et al. reported signicantly lower recurrence after laparoscopic rectopexy with mesh (anterior or posterior approach) compared to laparoscopic posterior suture rectopexy (OR 0.28, p=0.009) [13].
In their RCT, Lundby etal. reported early recurrence within one year in 5% of patients undergoing posterior suture rectopexy and in no patients undergoing VMR (p=0.305) [15]. Long-term recurrence rates from the same RCT at a median of
6.1years were reported by Hidaka et al. as 23% following posterior suture recto­pexy and 9% following VMR [14]. Authors note the study was not powered to assess recurrence, and this difference was not signicant. Madbouly etal. reported similar recurrence after laparoscopic VMR (1/41) compared to laparoscopic poste­rior suture rectopexy (1/33) (p=0.93) [16].
Function andQuality ofLife
Lobb etal. reported variable ndings in the comparison of functional outcomes after anterior suture rectopexy versus VMR [12]. Of ve studies comparing outcomes, two found no statistical difference in FI, and one reported a signicant difference favoring VMR.Regarding constipation, two studies reported a signicant difference favoring VMR. Hajibandeh et al. reported no signicant difference in Cleveland Clinic Incontinence Score (CCIS) (MD: 1.02, p=0.50) or Cleveland Clinic Constipation Score (CCCS) (MD: 1.54, p=0.47) between laparoscopic mesh rectopexy (anterior or posterior) versus laparoscopic posterior suture rectopexy [13].
Lundby et al. reported short-term outcomes of their RCT [15]. Patients who underwent laparoscopic VMR had a signicant pre- to post-operative improvement in obstructive defecation syndrome (ODS) score (1.97, 95% CI 0.01–3.93), and a non-signicant improvement following laparoscopic posterior suture rectopexy (2.18, 95% CI 0.14–4.49). The difference between the two groups was not signi­cant. Long-term outcomes from this RCT reported by Hidaka et al. found total Patient Assessment of Constipation Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAC-QoL) score was signicantly lower in the VMR cohort (0.26, 0.14–0.83) compared to posterior suture rectopexy (0.93, 0.32–1.61) (p = 0.008). The total constipation symptom

https://t.me/medicina_free
score measured by Patient Assessment of Constipation-Symptoms (PAC-SYM) was signicantly lower in the VMR cohort (0.5, 0.21–0.87) compared to posterior suture rectopexy (1.0, 0.5–1.5) (p=0.031). Except for the CCIS, other scores including the ODS and the CCCS signicantly favored the VMR group (p=0.011 and p=0.017, respectively). Madbouly etal. found signicant improvement in incontinence (mea­sured by Wexner incontinence scale) and obstructed defecation (measured by Wexner constipation scale) after both laparoscopic VMR and laparoscopic posterior suture rectopexy [16]. After 1year, GIQoL improved signicantly in all patients in both cohorts but was signicantly higher after VMR (p=0.05). After VMR, 50% of patients reported improvement in pre-existing constipation compared to 23% of patients after posterior suture rectopexy, which was signicant (p=0.04). There was no signicant difference in fecal incontinence between the two procedures.

Altemeier Versus Delorme Procedure
Two factorial randomized trials, PROSPER and the more recent trial reported by Smedberg etal., performed additional comparison of outcomes after Altemeier vs. Delorme procedures [2, 3].
Morbidity
The PROSPER trial did not compare postoperative complications but described out­comes in both cohorts [2]. Four mortalities were reported following perineal proce­dures, 2 following Altemeier and 2 following Delorme. Other serious complications included 4 anastomotic leakages in the Altemeier group, though one of the patients had been randomized to receive Delorme. Three of these patients were men and were demographically distinct from most of the study population. Overall morbidity was similar in the randomized trial reported by Smedberg etal. [3]. Most complications were Clavien-Dindo Grade I or II, with 5 total complications reported in the Delorme cohort and 10 total complications reported in the Altemeier cohort (p=0.331) includ­ing one mortality 11days after discharge deemed unrelated to the surgery.
Recurrence
The PROSPER trial found fewer recurrences after Altemeier compared to Delorme (25% versus 31%), but this difference was not signicant (p=0.4) [2]. Smedberg et al. reported recurrence rates favoring Altemeier over Delorme, but at no time point were these differences signicant [3]. Authors reported recurrence rates at 3 months, 1year, 3years, and in longer-term follow-up. Recurrence at 1year was 50% following Delorme and 32% following Altemeier (p=0.203). Recurrence at more than 3 years was 58% following Delorme and 47% following Altemeier (p=0.345).

Function andQuality ofLife
The PROSPER trial reported no signicant differences in bowel function and qual­ity of life scores following Delorme versus Altemeier procedures as measured by the Vaizey score, the Bowel thermometer, and the EQ-5D [2]. In both cases, scores improved from baseline to 6weeks, and were maintained at 1 and 3years postop­eratively. Smedberg etal. had higher baseline Wexner incontinence scores in patients randomized to Delorme (14.9) versus Altemeier (10.7) (p= 0.005), but reported similar scores at 3months, 1 and 3years with long-term scores of 8.6in both groups (p=0.995) [3].
Recommendations
Surgical treatment options for rectal prolapse continue to expand and evolve. There is not a single gold-standard approach. There are numerous factors that inuence a surgeon’s recommended surgical approach.
Abdominal prolapse repairs continue to have a lower recurrence rate compared to perineal approaches (evidence quality strong). As minimally invasive abdominal approaches continue to mature with shorter operative time, minimal postoperative pain and faster return to normal activity, this approach can be performed on high­risk patients with minimal morbidity (evidence quality moderate; weak recommen­dation). Perineal proctosigmoidectomy (Altemeier) confers greater advantage over Delorme repair with lower recurrence rate as well as improved function and quality of life (evidence quality moderate; weak recommendation). There is insubstantial evidence to guide the choice of perineal repair versus ventral mesh rectopexy. There is no advantage proven in surgical approach (laparoscopic versus robotic) for recto­pexy (evidence quality moderate; weak recommendation). Ventral rectopexy con­sistently improves functional outcomes relating to constipation, mechanical outlet obstruction, and fecal incontinence (evidence quality moderate, weak recommenda­tion). Ventral mesh rectopexy is favored over posterior suture rectopexy in func­tional outcome improvement (evidence quality moderate, weak recommendation). The risk of mesh related complications after ventral mesh rectopexy is <1%. However, the risk of recurrent after ventral mesh rectopexy is lower than suture rectopexy. The risks and benets of prolapse repair using mesh should be speci­cally discussed with patients preoperatively (evidence quality moderate, strong recommendation).
Personal View
The evaluation and treatment approach to rectal prolapse has evolved rapidly over the last 5years as the surgical treatment for pelvic oor related disorders and symp­toms has improved. The fact that all surgical treatment options continue to carry a risk of recurrent prolapse indicates that there is still more to learn and better

https://t.me/medicina_free
433
techniques and approaches that can be performed. Minimally invasive abdominal approaches for repair of rectal prolapse are safe for high-risk patients and continue to have a lower risk of recurrence. Thus, the appeal of perineal approaches has faded rapidly. In fact, we reserve Altemeier repairs for young men with full thickness rectal prolapse who have low anal tone. Perineal repairs have the lowest risk of injury to nerves of sexual function. Additionally, this population of patients tends to have a signicant behavioral component of habitually straining which is less likely to result in deterioration of repair after Altemeier compared to all of the “pexy” procedures.
Women in the fth to seventh decade of life are most aficted by rectal prolapse. This patient population is also the most likely to experience symptoms of urinary incontinence and urgency, pelvic pressure, fecal urgency, bowel habit irregularity, and incomplete defecation. This constellation of symptoms is commonly associated with multicompartment pelvic organ prolapse. Occasionally, pelvic organ prolapse will include laxity in one or more compartments that is frankly visible on resting exam. But commonly, laxity in one or more pelvic compartments is not visible on exam, and pelvic oor testing is the only means of identifying the extent of pelvic oor laxity. Studies such as defecography, anal manometry, and urodynamics can be used to identify points of weakness that contribute to a patient’s constellation of symptoms. Identifying all points of dysfunctional laxity may require multidisci­plinary collaboration for evaluation and treatment. Neglecting to address dysfunc­tional laxity in one compartment while xing another compartment may compromise the repair or exacerbate dysfunction in the untreated compartment. The growing enthusiasm to evaluate and treat pelvic organ prolapse in a multidisciplinary fashion has likely been instrumental in the increased frequency of robotic approach utiliza­tion since port site layout and instruments can more easily be shared between spe­cialists compared to the laparoscopic approach.
VMR has earned a spot amongst the most commonly performed and most effec­tive surgeries for treatment of rectal prolapse. This approach targets strengthening of the tissue in the rectovaginal septum. The anterior rectum and posterior vagina are incredibly dynamic in women during defecation. Conversely, men have inher­ent stability along the anterior rectal wall due to the prostate. In women with nor­mal pelvic oor coordination, ballooning of the anterior rectal wall into a large rectocele during defecation can be the initial structural laxity that results in internal intussusception of the anterior rectal wall and subsequent prolapse. Similarly, loss of support of the uterus can result in exaggerated posterior and inferior positioning of the uterus, cervix and/or bladder. This exaggerated posterior positioning results in increased pressure and stress to the anterior rectal wall, which can also contrib­ute to rectal intussusception and prolapse. Ultimately, the only female pelvic struc­tures that are uniformly sturdy with age are the pubic bone and tailbone. Pelvic organ laxity and loss of connective tissue strength with age require surgical repairs that provide new strength and structure to the most susceptible areas. VMR is ideal for providing support to the anterior rectal wall and posterior vagina. When com­bined with sacrocolpopexy, this surgery can provide even greater support in the pelvis.

Unfortunately, the constellation of symptoms typical of pelvic organ prolapse are non-specic and can also be secondary to other pelvic oor disorders. Thus, it is imperative to conrm the underlying cause of symptoms with examination and test­ing. Failure to accurately identify the underlying cause of symptoms and inappro­priate patient selection for surgery will result in poor outcomes and even complications. For example, obstructive defecation caused by pelvic oor tension and failure of appropriate muscle coordination results in poor relaxation with Valsalva and symptoms of incomplete defecation, overow seepage, and urgency. All of these symptoms mimic internal prolapse. However, treating a patient that has signicant pelvic tension and poor coordination with placement of mesh will worsen the stiffness and lack of pelvic movement. Again, caution and a systematic approach to the diagnosis of pelvic oor disorder symptoms is imperative.
In conclusion, we fully expect that the data presented in this chapter will con­tinue to evolve as our understanding of rectal prolapse and associated pelvic organ prolapse improves. Longstanding perineal approaches will continue to be a safe option for repair, yet the patients who will benet most from this approach may change over time. We think the most exciting advance in rectal prolapse treatment is the recognition that this problem rarely occurs in isolation of other pelvic com­partment laxity. This recognition has led to new operative approaches, new surgical techniques, and multidisciplinary collaboration.

Introduction
The management of complex anal stulas can be quite challenging for the surgeon and frustrating for the patient. These stulas arise as an abnormal epithelial-line tract which connects the anal canal to the perianal skin and are mainly caused by cryptoglandular disease followed by inammatory bowel disease. Up to 50% of anorectal abscesses will eventually develop into a stula-in-ano. They are character­ized using the Park’s classication, established in 1976, which separates anal stu­las into four types based on its relation to the sphincter muscle: intersphincteric, transsphincteric, suprasphincteric, and extrasphincteric. The goals for the surgical management of stulas are to (1) control sepsis, (2) dene the anatomy, (3) preserve sphincter function, and (4) minimize the risk of recurrence. Over the years, a num­ber “sphincter sparing” procedures have been developed to improve healing and reduce the risk of incontinence. The goal of this chapter is to review the literature pertaining specically to transsphincteric stulas and offer our opinion on best management options.

In this chapter, we review the data behind the use of stulotomy, seton placement, brin glue, brin plug, endorectal advancement ap (ERAF), ligation of inter­sphincteric stula tract (LIFT), stula laser closure (FiLaC), and video assisted anal stula treatment (VAAFT). Table 39.1 summarizes the clinical results from the studies reviewed and analyzed.
We performed a literature search in the MEDLINE database (using PUBMED) under the search titles “transsphincteric stula” (TSF) or “stula-in-ano”. Emphasis was placed on more recent studies published with in the last 7-years. Some older studies were included given absence of more recent data of some of the techniques that were evaluated.
