Average length of procedures ranged between 20 and 169\u00a0min, and length of stay between 1 and 15\u00a0days. Complications typically occurred after 7\u201317% of procedures (range 0\u201361%). Post\u2010operative bleeding was uncommon (0\u20134%) as well as haematoma or sepsis (0\u20132%). Fistulation did not occur in most studies. Two procedure\u2010related deaths were observed for 3209 patients. Although inconsistent, 78% of patients reported a satisfactory or good outcome, with 30\u201350% experiencing reduced symptoms of straining, incomplete emptying or reduced vaginal digitation. About 17% of patients developed anatomical recurrence. Considering measures of harm and global satisfaction rating scales, there was insufficient evidence to prefer one type of procedure over another. There was no evidence to support better outcomes based on selection of patients with a particular size or grade of rectocoele.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Evidence supporting recto\u2010vaginal reinforcement procedures is currently derived from observational studies and comparisons, with only one high quality study.
