The Delorme Procedure for Rectal Prolapse is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to correct rectal prolapse in patients with mild to moderate cases. This procedure focuses on strengthening the rectal wall and restoring its normal position without major abdominal surgery.

During the procedure, the surgeon removes the mucosal layer of the prolapsed rectum and performs plication of the muscular layer to reinforce the rectal wall. This approach improves rectal stability while minimizing the risk of recurrence.

Recovery involves managing discomfort with medications and following dietary recommendations to prevent straining. Most patients can return to normal activities within a few weeks.

Patients benefit from the Delorme procedure as it provides a safe and effective solution for rectal prolapse with reduced recovery time. This technique is particularly suitable for older patients or those with comorbidities.
