Herein, is Cystocele repair major surgery?
A moderate or severe cystocele may require reconstructive surgery to move the bladder into a normal position. There are a number of ways to perform this surgery, including an anterior repair.
Also to know, is prolapsed bladder surgery painful?
Pain may occur immediately after surgery, but this generally settles after a few days or weeks. It is rare for women to experience long-term pain following prolapse surgery. Rare complications from prolapse surgery may include injury to a nearby structure (e.g. bowel, bladder, ureter, nerve).
A cystocele repair is done through a small incision (surgical cut) in your vaginal wall. If a sling is being placed, 2 smaller incisions will be made on your lower abdomen (belly) or inner thigh.
