Outcomes of laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy are well known, but data on intra-operative adverse events is scant. A multicenter pool-analysis of prospectively collected database on 1384 patients with internal/external rectal prolapse toke place. Overall 72 (5%) patients experienced complications, 41 discovered and managed intraoperatively, 22 postoperative complications, and 9 required readmission.
