Surgery for rectal prolapse
Im suffering from complete rectal prolapse for 8,9 years. Can it be corrected using starr surgery by anus. My Medical test for army is scheduled next months and any abdominal surgery performed must be six months old so through anus surgery is only option. Will it be good step for me to go for perianal surgery
