Manchester surgery to treat genital prolapse

Genital prolapse is a common pathology, often seen in patients who have given birth. This is a phenomenon in which the uterus descends into the vagina or prolapses outside the vulva, often accompanied by prolapse of the anterior vaginal wall and bladder or the posterior wall of the vagina and rectum. The disease is common in women who work hard, give birth many times, give birth unsafely, in the group of 40-50 years old and older. People who have never given birth can also have genital prolapse, but the incidence is lower and usually only cervical prolapse. The disease often has no physical symptoms, so the patient is only discovered when there is a prolapsed mass. The disease is not life-threatening but greatly affects the patient's daily life.

Treatment regimens for genital prolapse are aimed at supportive treatment, mitigating the effects caused by the disease or radically treating it with surgical methods. Medical treatment includes: Rehabilitation, vaginal lifting, use of estrogen supplements is indicated for patients who are too old, have chronic diseases or have no surgical conditions. Surgical treatment (surgery) is aimed at restoring the uterine support system, lifting the bladder, rebuilding the anterior-posterior vaginal wall, suturing the levator muscle, and reconstructing the perineum.
If the degree of genital prolapse is not severe, the use of a long-term lifting ring can improve the condition. In some cases, patients may experience unexpected complications such as: cervical erosion, ulcerative prolapse, difficulty urinating, urinary incontinence, urinary tract infection, difficult defecation, constipation,...
