摘要:

SummaryThis procedure has been employed on 28 patients who have been followed from three to ten years. Ten have been observed for five years. There have been no complications other than urinary retention; there have been no recurrences and no deaths.Occasionally, about a centimeter of mucosa protrudes. This is owing to a relaxed sphincter. The condition does not progress and, in this series of patients, it has not been an early sign of recurrence. A silver wire, placed so that it encircles the rectal outlet, solves this problem satisfactorily.No obstructive phenomena have been encountered, probably because of the presence of the indwelling “flatus tube” and the amplitude of the rectal ampulla where the stitching is done.As a result of his careful study of 28 patients upon whom he has performed identical surgical procedures, the author makes the significant observation that the dilated levator gap associated with rectal prolapse occurs as a result of the disease and is not its cause. Furthermore, this accounts for the success of the simple operation which he has described.

摘要:

ConclusionsSpastic diverticulosis is defined and differentiated from diverticulitis. Persistence of the filling defect and constancy of its location are not essential for the diagnosis of a small polypoid lesion in an area of spastic diverticulosis.A single positive finding of an intraluminal defect in spastic diverticulosis is more significant than numerous negative findings. Discovery of an intraluminal defect in an area of spastic diverticulosis demands re‐examination after antispasmodic therapy.Differentiation between a polypoid lesion in an area of diverticulosis and the intrinsic features of diverticulitis are discussed. Circumferential visualization of the colon is essential to differentiate a polyp from a diverticulum. Fecal defects in an area of spastic diverticulosis are comparatively uncommon, so that such a defect should be considered a polypoid lesion until its presence is disproved.
