Foreword
It has never been easy to introduce new concepts and therapeutic in-terventions into surgical practice. When attempting to do so, one is faced with the interagency of traditional dogma, which still in this era of evidence-based medicine tends to dominate the surgical thought proc­ess. This is particularly so in the area of coloproctology, where prejudice and personal opinion often influence objective analysis whenever tradition is challenged. A large body of literature on anorectal prolapse has accumulated over the years; although much is based on personal viewpoint rather than scientific evidence, it has nevertheless been passed down through the generations as ac-cepted wisdom and practice. As a consequence, it is a challenge to change the mindset of a generation of surgeons and to introduce new concepts and novel techniques which at first might appear to be a radical departure from conventional teaching.
It is obviously not possible to present the basis for the develop-ment of transanal stapling techniques for anorectal prolapse in this Foreword; this is dealt with in detail elsewhere in this book. The in-terested reader will have the opportunity to share in the new and emerging concepts surrounding anorectal prolapse and to deepen their understanding of the patho­physiology and basis for surgical correction. Although hemorrhoidal disease and external rectal prolapse have been known about for centuries, the understanding of internal rectal prolapse (intussusception) and rectocele has only really advanced with the emergence of radiological imaging tech-niques, such as defecography. With a heightened awareness of the condition, it has become apparent that the prevalence of sympto-matic anorectal prolapse is far more common than originally por-trayed, and that its impact on quality of life has been underestimated and undervalued. Perhaps for the first time, modern surgical tech-niques can now offer symptomatic improvement and enhanced qual-ity of life for those unfortunate enough to suffer with this chronic condition.
Historically, hemorrhoidal prolapse, internal and external rectal prolapse, and rectocele have been considered as separate clinical en-tities, with distinct etiologies. Modern think­ing and clinical observa-tion, however, would suggest that the different manifestations of anorectal prolapse in fact share a common pathophysiological basis. There is thus emerging a unified theory for anorectal prolapse.
Transanal Stapling for Anorectal Prolapse provides the reader with a clear overview of the pathophysiological basis of the disease and the evolution of transanal stapling tech­niques. Chapters have been contributed by an international panel of expert colorectal sur­geons to give a broad and comprehensive coverage of the subject. As well as covering the history and pathophysiology of anorectal prolapse, this book provides a structured approach to anorectal sta-pling techniques along with “tips and tricks” for success. This book will be an essential reference for all specialists with an interest in coloproctology.

Introduction

David Jayne and Angelo Stuto
The first transanal stapling technique for the treat­ment of anorectal prolapse was presented at the 2nd World Congress of Coloproctology in Rome in 1998 by Dr. Antonio Longo [1] . This described a novel technique for the surgical correction of prolapsing hemorrhoids, originally referred to as procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (PPH) and more recently as stapled hemorrhoidopexy. Since that time, the technique has developed and gone on to enjoy tremendous success, due mainly to its benefits in reducing postoperative pain, shorten­ing hospital stay, and achieving an earlier return to normal activities. Although a source of contro­versy in the early years, it has subsequently been subjected to critical appraisal and has provoked many randomized clinical trials, meta-analyses, and more recently in 2007 a favorable review from the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) [2] .
A natural evolution of stapled hemorrhoidopexy was its application to patients with obstructed defecation syndrome (ODS). This condition is common among multiparous women, and results from a dysfunctional pelvic floor giving rise to symptoms of constipation and an inability to sat­isfactorily evacuate the rectum. It is associated with characteristic anatomical abnormalities of the lower rectum, which impede the normal expulsion of feces. These abnormalities include rectocele for­mation, rectal intussusception (internal prolapse), and mucosal prolapse. The stapled transanal rectal resection (STARR) procedure is an extension of stapled hemorrhoidopexy, but instead of producing
a mucosal resection of the hemorrhoidal prolapse it achieves a full-thickness resection of the lower rec­tum, incorporating any rectocele, intussusception, or prolapse. In this way, the anatomical obstruction to evacuation is removed, and normal defecatory function is restored. Although still a relatively new technique, the STARR procedure is attracting great interest among coloproctologists. This enthusiasm is fueled, at least in part, by encouraging early results which suggest a short-term efficacy of around 80% with acceptable rates of morbidity.
The time is now right for a book on transanal sta­pling techniques for anorectal prolapse. Both sta­pled hemorrhoidopexy and STARR have recently enjoyed widespread exposure and their application is spreading rapidly, particularly in Europe, but also across the rest of the world. However, many areas of controversy remain and warrant com­prehensive discussion. Our current thinking on anorectal prolapse and its treatment has evolved significantly in recent years and this needs to be updated and documented.
The aims of this book are to fill a knowledge gap and to provide a comprehensive review of current thinking and practice in the management of anorectal prolapse, with emphasis on stapled hemorrhoidopexy for prolapsing hemorrhoids and the STARR procedure for ODS. This will be set against a historical background recording the development of the two procedures to put them in context and to provide further interest for the reader. In addition, it is hoped that the book will provide practical guidance in the application of

the techniques with criteria for patient selection, tips, and tricks for obtaining the best outcomes, and how to avoid and deal with potential com­plications. Wherever possible, the views of the authors will be supported by evidence drawn from personal experience and the literature. The final section of the book will concentrate on unre­solved controversies and suggest areas for further research and development.
It is hoped that this book will be of benefit to higher surgical trainees who are learning for the first time the complexities of proctological practice as well as established general surgeons and colo­proctologists who encounter the conditions on a frequent basis. It is increasingly being recognized that anorectal prolapse is often one component of a more complex pelvic floor disorder, which necessi­tates multidisciplinary collaboration between colo­proctologists, gynecologists, and urologists. This
book may therefore also appeal to practitioners in these associated specialties.
The editors have been privileged to receive con­tributions from a dedicated and enthusiastic inter­national panel of experts. It is hoped that the reader will benefit from their collective experience and insights into the rapidly evolving arena of transanal stapling for anorectal prolapse.
