What Is Anterior Repair Surgery?

Cystocele is a clinical condition in which the thin wall between the vagina and bladder becomes too weak to separate the two.  Gravity forces the bladder to exert pressure on the vagina, causing discomfort and pain.  Anterior repair surgery is a minimally invasive procedure performed by a gynecologist, urologist, or urogynecologist to move the bladder back into position.   

Anterior repair surgery is performed either under general or spinal anesthesia.  During the surgery the vaginal wall is cut to push the balder back into place.  Thereafter, the bladder is held in place with stitches, the surgeon removes excess vaginal skin, and he or she closes the wound with more stitches.  

Patients are encouraged to walk shortly after the anterior repair surgery to prevent thrombosis (within a day or so).  In most cases, patients are discharged within a week and can resume most normal tasks (including driving) fairly soon. Patients can return to work within a few days after discharge, provided that work does not involve any heavy lifting and stressful activities. However, strenuous activity is discouraged for about six weeks, and sexual intercourse is typically discouraged until the patient has made a full recovery.
