The Delorme operation has been used to treat 27 consecutive patients with complete rectal prolapse. The mean age in this group was 74 years and the average length of the prolapse was 12 cms. There was no postoperative mortality or morbidity. The follow-up ranges from 11 months to 64 months (mean 35 months) and so far there have been two recurrences. One of these has been successfully treated by a second Delorme operation. The second patient has declined further surgery. This low recurrence rate combined with the minor nature of the procedure suggests that the Delorme operation should be considered in all patients presenting with complete rectal prolapse.
德洛姆手术已连续用于治疗27例完全性直肠脱垂患者。该组患者的平均年龄为74岁，脱垂平均长度为12厘米。术后无死亡或并发症发生。随访时间为11个月至64个月（平均35个月），到目前为止有两例复发。其中一例已通过再次德洛姆手术成功治疗。第二例患者拒绝进一步手术。这种低复发率与该手术的微创性质表明，对于所有出现完全性直肠脱垂的患者都应考虑德洛姆手术。
