Overview
- Hemorrhage occurs frequently if the prolapsed rectum is left unreduced. If rectal prolapse is persistent for a long time, urological impairments may be associated.
- Common complications of rectal prolapse include fecal incontinence, constipation and rectal incarceration or even strangulation.
- All women with prolapse can be treated and their symptoms improved, even if not completely resolved.
Natural History
Allowing rectal prolapse to continue untreated beyond 4 years may lead to higher rates of subsequent rectal prolapse recurrence, secondary to a weakened pelvic floor. [1] In addition, Hemorrhage occurs frequently if the prolapsed rectum is left unreduced. If rectal prolapse is persistent for a long time, urological impairments (bladder stones or urethral stricture) may be associated.[2]
Complications
Common complications of rectal prolapse include:[1][3][4]
- Fecal incontinence (50-75%)
- Constipation (25-50%)
- Rectal incarceration or even strangulation
Prognosis
All women with prolapse can be treated and their symptoms improved, even if not completely resolved.[5]
