One hundred and twenty‐seven patients with complete rectal prolapse have been reviewed. The condition occurred more commonly in females than males (105 to 22), and at an older age in females (mean age 55 years compared with 40 years for males). Although the diagnosis is usually obvious, the importance of recognizing occult prolapse is stressed ...

A 56-year-old male presented to the emergency department with a feeling of heaviness and a protruding mass at the anal verge associated with pruritus in this area. The patient did not feel any pain and did not report experiencing faecal incontinence. Physical examination resulted in the visual diagnosis of a total rectal prolapse.

Rectal prolapse and rectal invagination
European Journal of Surgery, 2003Solitary rectal ulcer, internal rectal intussusception, and complete rectal prolapse are a range of defaecatory disorders that may have a common aetiology, namely chronic straining. If the pelvic floor is weak, external prolapse is often complicated by faecal incontinence.

Clinics in Gastroenterology, 1975
There are two schools of thought concerning the aetiology of rectal prolapse. On the one hand it was conceived to be a sliding hernia through a defect in the pelvic fascia, while on the other hand radiological studies have demonstrated prolapse to be represented by an intussusception of the rectum.

Clinical Pediatrics, 1999
Rectal prolapse in pediatrics has its highest incidence in infancy and is uncommonly seen in industrialized countries. The prolapse may involve only the mucosa (mucosal prolapse) or all layers of the rectum (complete prolapse or procidentia). It is usually detected by the child's parents and is brought urgently to medical attention; however, it is ...

Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1985
Rectal prolapse occurs mostly in the geriatric female patient and can be a very disabling condition. The etiology is intussusception of the rectosigmoid secondary to excessive and prolonged straining. Medical therapy for this disease process is not helpful and patients will require a surgical procedure.

In a series of 97 patients with rectal prolapse 36 were unaware that the prolapse was occurring. Failure to recognize the prolapse may cause delay in diagnosis and inappropriate treatment. In most instances the prolapse was considered to be primary and responded well to surgical repair; however, in a few patients the prolapse seemed to follow prolonged
