[Treatment of rectal prolapse with elastic circling of the anus: Perspectives of utilization].

The Thiersch technique for treatment of rectal prolapsus has been largely abandoned because the metallic or non-resorbable wire is poorly tolerated and non-extensible. Silastic can fulfil these requirements and was used in 11 patients, including two who underwent reoperations. Good results were obtained in 9. This technique is simple and can be proposed when the general status of the patient does not allow surgical cure of the prolapsus.
