Case: patient with recurrent re**al prolapse

Treatment: surgery; colopexy.
Re**al prolapse is a condition wherein part of the re**um protrudes through the a**s. This may occur due to straining that could be triggered by various factors such as
👉🏻diarrhea,
👉🏻constipation,
👉🏻presence of intestinal parasites,
👉🏻and other intestinal problems.
colopexy is the treatment of choice. A surgical procedure in which the colon is attached on the wall of the abdomen.
Status: sutures were removed, no reported recurrence of the condition (its been more than a month since the surgery).
——-hope to see the patient on deworming and vaccination schedules😇
