Description

In traditional repair of pelvic floor surgery, incisions are made through the vaginal skins and the torn or damaged connective tissues is placated using absorbable suture materials. In laparoscopic pelvic floor repair, surgeons reattach the prolapsed pelvic organs to the pelvic floor muscles or bony landmarks using non-absorbable / permanent suture or mesh materials. The repair is based on the concept that pelvic organs prolapse mainly as a result shearing forces which damage the connective tissues that attach the pelvic organs to the pelvic floor. Laparoscopic surgery is suitable for correction of detachment types of pelvic floor defects which form cystocoele, rectocoele, uterine and post-hysterectomy vault prolapse. Risks associated with laparoscopic pelvic floor repair are uncommon. They include risks associated anesthesia, laparoscopic surgery and vaginal repair. The latter may include rare injury to bladder, bowel, blood vessels and nerves of the pelvis. Prolapse is a condition in which the body that are normally supported by pelvic floor or bladder, intestines and uterus, hernia or protrudes into the vagina. This happens as a result of damage to the muscles and ligaments that make up the support of the pelvic floor. For many women, prolapse may involve lowering the uterus, vagina, bladder and / or rectum consequences of feeling “buldging” in the vagina. In some cases there can be free screenings of these organs. Pelvic organ prolapse can lead to symptoms such as urinary incontinence, constipation, and difficulty in sex. Laparoscopic colposuspension is a minimally invasive surgical technique that ensures a safe and sustainable way for the reconstruction of the pelvic floor and its contents, without the need for a large incision in the abdomen.
