This document discusses rectal prolapse, including partial (mucosal) and complete (full-thickness) prolapse. It describes the types, causes, diagnosis and treatment options for each. For partial prolapse in infants and children, treatment includes digital repositioning, injections or surgery like Thiersch's operation. In adults, options are injections, excision or ligature. Complete prolapse involves all rectal wall layers and has abdominal or perineal surgical treatments like mesh rectopexy, resection rectopexy or Delorme's operation to reposition or remove the prolapsed tissue.
