Abstract
The various modified fixation procedures used for rectal prolapse take into account the pathophysiologic concept of complete prolapse of the rectum as a sliding hernia of the pouch of Douglas. The possibility of intussusception by reinforcement of the wall of the extensively mobilized rectum was successfully prevented by a new technique. The use of this simple technique in another form of prolapse, namely, prolapse of the terminal colostomy, convinced us of its usefulness.
