Transperineal repair for rectocele: grade of satisfaction and postoperatory dispareunia and recurrence

Rectocele is a poorly diagnosed pelvic dysfunction, despite its significant prevalence. Its recognition is essential for the treatment of certain cases as refractory constipation. The symptoms are vague and not always associated with prolapse. Clinical treatment is ineffective when used alone. There are several techniques, being the transperineal approach an appropriate option for the correction of prolapse. The target of this data is a group of 12 female patients with rectocele: they experienced significant improvement in the defecation standard, an acceptable response in the treatment of dyspareunia, with acceptable recurrence rate and high degree of satisfaction after surgery. The comparison with other techniques still requires significant further comparative studies with samples more expressive. To date, any comparative analysis between the surgical techniques used may be failure.
