[Transsacral rectopexy for treatment of bleeding rectal prolapse in a patient with severe liver disease: case report].

Rectal procidentia is an uncommon but debilitating condition that often affects elderly patients with significant medical problems. Fecal incontinence is usually frequent. Abdominal rectopexy with or without sigmoid resection repeatedly demonstrate lower recurrence rates (2-4%) but in high-risk patients, morbidity and mortality may be significant. Perineal or transacral approaches may be used in these patients to avoid the complications of abdominal procedures and general anesthesia.
