I've had crohn's disease for a bunch of years and have had a rectal prolapse for almost two years. It took a while for the drs to diagnose it because I'm so young and have no risk factors like constipation.
I saw a surgeon at one of the top three pediatric IBD centers recently who told me that he's never had a case of rectal prolapse in a crohn's patient and doesn't know if he should do surgery and/or what kind. He is going to reach out to other surgeons, I was just wondering if anyone else dealt with this issue and what their experience was? I recently had a scope that showed moderate inflammation including this area, but the prolapse has been there even when in remission.
