Transperineal repair of symptomatic rectocele with Marlex mesh: a clinical, physiological and radiologic assessment of treatment.

Abstract

Operative repair of the rectovaginal septum removes the need for vaginal digitation in most women with large rectoceles on proctography. Further studies in well-defined groups of women are needed to establish how well rectocele repair aids women with a variety of other pelvic and perineal symtoms.
