Best Rectopexy Surgeon in Delhi
Laparoscopic Rectopexy
Laparoscopic rectopexy is a surgical procedure used to treat rectal prolapse. This condition is characterized by a protrusion of the rectum through the anus, often caused by a weakness or total loss of the normal support structures of the rectum. Rectal prolapse is characterized by a number of symptoms, including bleeding, severe discomfort, mucus leakage, and fecal incontinence.

​
While a rectal prolapse may cause significant pain and disturbance in a person’s life, it is totally curable with laparoscopic rectopexy, a minimally invasive surgery intended to restore damaged or compromised rectal support systems. Rectopexy surgery, which is a laparoscopic technique, is often conducted via a very small incision in the abdomen. A laparoscope is then introduced through the incision and precisely positioned to provide the surgeon with enough view to complete the procedure.
How is laparoscopic rectopexy performed?
During a laparoscopic rectopexy, the patient is given anesthetic before the surgery begins. The surgery then begins, with the surgeon making a few small incisions in the patient’s abdomen through which a laparoscope (a thin medical instrument with a high-intensity light and a high-resolution camera at its end) and other surgical tools designed specifically for laparoscopic procedure are inserted to repair the prolapsed rectum.
What precautions should a patient take after a laparoscopic rectopexy?
-
Drink plenty of water and other fluids, such as fruit juices and coconut water, and eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables (after the soft diet phase is over)
-
Sports and other outside activities should be avoided.
-
Do not engage in any vigorous exercise, including heavy lifting.
-
Take plenty of rest and sleep
-
