What is STARR Procedure?
STARR is a specialized procedure in which excess rectal tissue is removed through the anus without any external cuts or visible scars. This technique corrects structural abnormalities in the rectum and helps restore its normal function, improving bowel movement.
Symptoms of Obstructed Defecation Syndrome (ODS)
Patients with ODS often experience difficulty in passing stool, a sensation of incomplete evacuation, frequent urge to visit the toilet, excessive straining, and sometimes the need to manually assist bowel movements. These symptoms can significantly affect daily life and comfort.
Benefits of STARR Procedure
STARR is a minimally invasive procedure that offers several advantages, including no external incisions, minimal pain, and faster recovery. It effectively removes excess rectal tissue and restores normal anatomy, providing long-term relief from symptoms of ODS.
