Laparoscopic Colposuspension for Urinary Incontinence Treatment
Laparoscopic colposuspension is a surgical procedure used to treat urinary incontinence by supporting and lifting the base of the bladder with surgical stitches. This procedure is typically recommended for people who have stress incontinence, which is a type of incontinence that occurs when there is physical stress on the bladder, such as when coughing, sneezing, or exercising.
Procedure:
During a laparoscopic colposuspension, the surgeon will make four small incisions in the lower abdominal area. Through these incisions, they will insert a small tube with a camera and other instruments. Using these instruments, the surgeon will lift and support the base of the bladder using stitches. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes about one to two hours to complete.
Benefits:
Laparoscopic colposuspension has several benefits compared to other surgical treatments for urinary incontinence. It is less invasive than traditional open surgery, which means there is less scarring and a faster recovery time. It is also less painful and has a lower risk of complications.
Summary:
Laparoscopic colposuspension is a surgical procedure used to treat urinary incontinence by supporting and lifting the base of the bladder with surgical stitches. It is a minimally invasive procedure with a faster recovery time and lower risk of complications compared to traditional open surgery.
