title: [E. Delorme correction of rectal prolapse].
abstract: Rectal prolapse is a distressing condition. Among the multiple corrections described, the perineal approach has generally been abandoned. However, Delorme's procedure is a good, simple and efficient intervention with a low morbidity for certain elderly selected patients. The purpose of this paper is to recall the details of this technique and review its results.
