Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids （PPH） combined with Shaobei injection in treatment for obstructed defecation syndrome （ODS） caused by rectocele. Methods Seventy-two female patients with rectocele from December 2009 to January 2011 in this hospital were divided into PPH combined with Shaobei injection group （36 cases） and only PPH group （36 cases）. The Longo ODS score was performed on week one，month one，month three，and month six after operation，respectively；pain was evaluated， complications such as urine retention，postoperative bleeding，and anal function were observed；hospital stay and recovery work time were recorded in two groups. Results All patients were followed up for 6 months，there were no significant differences in complications，hospital stay，and the Longo ODS score on week one and month one after operation between two groups （P＞0.05）. But the Longo ODS score of the PPH combined with Shaobei injection group on month three and month six after operation were significantly lower than those of the only PPH group （P＜0.05）. Conclusion PPH combined with Shaobei injection has a better efficacy as compared with only PPH，and at least as safe as only PPH.
