An 86-year-old female presented with the first episode of an incarcerated full thickness rectal prolapse, concerning for ischemia of the prolapsed segment. Intra-operatively, the patient was noted to have an enterocele containing a 20-25 cm segment of strangulated and perforated small bowel. She underwent a perineal rectosigmoidectomy (altemeier procedure) with levatorplasty followed by a small bowel resection and anastomosis trans-abdominally.

Rectal prolapse is the complete protrusion of the rectum through the anal canal. It is most common in elderly people, but can rarely occur at any age, the strangulated rectal prolapse is a rare complication. We report the case of a 78-year old men who underwent emergency surgery for strangulated rectal prolapse. Emergency perineal rectosigmoidectomy (Altemeier repair) was performed with simple outcome. This case highlights the importance of Altemeier’s procedure in the face of a strangulated rectal prolapse in an emergency situation.
