Popis: Highlights • The patient with Parkinson’s disease had stoma prolapse after Hartmann’s procedure. • Local procedure had failed, and stoma reversal was considered to be favorable. • We assumed that stoma reversal alone led to worsening of concomitant constipation. • We performed resection of the remnant colon with ileorectal anastomosis. • It may be an optimal treatment for patients with concomitant colonic motility disorder.
Introduction Treatment strategy for recurrent stoma prolapse has not been well-established because of the rarity and complexity of the condition. We report a case of recurrent stoma prolapse that was successfully managed using unique surgical treatments. Presentation of case A 72-year-old man with a history of Parkinson's disease presented with transverse (T3N0M0) and sigmoid (T3N0M0) colon cancer. Considering the status of large bowel obstruction, Hartmann's procedure was indicated. Four months after surgery, stoma prolapse occurred, which became irreducible. Six months after surgery, local resection of the prolapsed bowel was performed. The patient continued to receive laxatives for bowel movement control and his abdomen remained distended. Ten months later, stoma prolapse recurred with evident bowel dilatation. Initially, we planned Hartmann’s reversal. However, as the patient had intractable constipation secondary to Parkinson’s disease, resection of the proximal colon and ileorectal anastomosis were considered as the treatment choices. Therefore, we performed right colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis. At 1.5 years after the last surgery, complications such as small bowel obstruction, difficulty in defecation, or fecal incontinence were not detected. Discussion The cause of stoma prolapse is generally ascribed to various anatomical factors such as redundant intestine, high intra-abdominal pressure, and intraperitoneal route. Stoma prolapse is also influenced by other factors, including old age, obesity, and the severity of illness that necessitated stoma creation. In this case, the decision regarding surgical management was complicated by colonic motility disorder with concomitant Parkinson’s disease. Conclusion We suggest that ileorectal anastomosis may be an optimal surgical treatment for patients with recurrent stoma prolapse and concomitant colonic motility disorder who have undergone Hartmann’s procedure.
