Prolapse of the rectum is a pathology that preferentially affects older women with a significant impact on quality of life. A very large number of therapeutic approaches can be proposed (functional treatment, surgical techniques by perineal approach and surgical techniques by anterior approach). D'Hoore and Pennix described Ventral Rectopexy with prosthetic reinforcement which is accepted as a standard of treatment in much of Europe for externalized prolapse but remains maligned in much of the world. Due to the relatively recent appearance of this technique and the great variability in the management methods, the long-term results of Ventral Rectopexy have been little studied. This surgical technique is the preferred approach offered at CHU Grenoble Alpes. Pr Faucheron have internationally recognized experience in surgical grip with a very high patient volume in recent years.
