Abstract

A modification of Sullivan's procedure for endorectal repair of "low" rectocele was completed in 59 patients with local anesthesia. Associated anorectal pathology was corrected in all patients. The technique is described. At follow-up, the results were as follows: 37 excellent (62.7 per cent), 10 good (16.9 per cent), eight fair (13.6 per cent), and four poor (6.7 per cent).
