Randomized trial to compare two standardized surgical approaches in rectal prolapse – surgical mucosal reduction according to Delorme vs. laparoscopic resection rectopexy (DeloRes-Trial)

INTERVENTION: Intervention 1: Delorme' procedure Intervention 2: Laparoscopic resection rectopexy CONDITION: K62.3 ‐ Rectal prolapse PRIMARY OUTCOME: Time to recurrence of full‐thickness rectal prolapse until 24 months after surgery SECONDARY OUTCOME: Descriptive analyses of differences in treatment groups regarding operation time, morbidity, mortality, postoperative duration hospital stay, quality of life and obstipation as well as incontinence as important complications of rectal prolapse. Exploratory assessment of prognostic factors and subgroups. INCLUSION CRITERIA: • Full‐thickness rectal prolapse, externally visible on straining • ASA‐Score I‐III • Patient is suited for both standardized surgical approaches • Patient is able to cooperate and understands character and individual consequences of clinical trial • Patient has given written informed consent
