Obstructed Defecation Syndrome (ODS) describes a condition which is characterized by chronic constipation. The symptoms of ODS include abdominal pain or cramping, irregular bowel frequency and the feeling of not having emptied the rectum. ODS is usually associated with internal rectal prolapse and/or rectocele. For surgical treatment of ODS, a plethora of surgical techniques have been described with no one method having been assessed as a gold standard.
