Since laparoscopic ventral mesh
rectopexy (LVMR) was reported by D'Hoore in 2004, it has become the most common surgical procedure for external rectal prolapse (ERP) in Europe (1).
The review explores all aspects of the increasingly popular ventral
rectopexy procedure and presents them together.
He then spoke about Laparoscopic Ventral Mesh
Rectopexy (LVMR).

Dixon was suspended from two hospitals in Bristol, prior to working at the Spire Hospital, for reportedly performing mesh
rectopexy on patients.
And he said: 'I thought you know, a woman of your age wouldn't really need her ovaries.' "I said 'Why did you remove them?' and he just said 'They were in the way".'." "My life is absolutely ruined but you know, I can't say that it's Mr Dixon's ruined my life." Mr Dixon built up an international reputation for using mesh
rectopexy to fix bowel problems, often caused by childbirth, but is currently suspended from performing this surgery at two hospitals in Bristol.
A ventral laparoscopic
rectopexy (d'Hoore technique) was performed.
Patient had previously undergone lateral sphincterotomy or
rectopexy many years back, which he faintly remembers.
Biofeedback therapy can be helpful and pharmacological therapies include lubricants, bulking laxatives, sucralfate, and hydrocortisone enemas.[sup][7] However, patients with rectal prolapse should be considered for surgical treatment by resection and suture
rectopexy.[sup][8]
Roche, "Early experience with robotic
rectopexy," International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery, vol.
Laparoscopic suture
rectopexy without resection is effective treatment for full-thickness rectal prolapse.
The management is surgical, which can be via a perineal approach or an abdominal
rectopexy, which is well suited to the laparoscopic approach.
