Stapled TransAnal Rectal Resection (STARR) With Contour® TranstarTM

Morbidity and Functional Outcome of Stapled TransAnal Rectal Resection (STARR) With Contour® TranstarTM in Obstructed Defecation

The stapled transanal rectal resection (STARR procedure) is an effective treatment for obstructed defecation syndrome (ODS) caused by intussusception and rectocele. Recently a new technique has been developed using the new Contour® TranstarTM stapler, which was specifically designed to facilitate the STARR procedure. The investigators would like to evaluate the morbidity and quality of life.
