(Baonghean.vn) - On March 24, the Department of Obstetrics - Tan Ky District Medical Center performed surgery to suture the uterus.successfor patients with grade IV genital prolapse.

Previously, the Center received patient Tran Thi Hoa, 55 years old, residing in Giang Son Dong, Do Luong district, with difficulty urinating and pain in the lower abdomen. Through examination and consultation, doctors at Tan Ky Medical Center diagnosed the patient with grade IV genital prolapse, anterior vaginal wall prolapse and bladder prolapse.

Immediately after that, the Center's board of directors urgently held a consultation to prescribe laparoscopic surgery to suspend the uterus and rebuild the vaginal wall, avoiding complications for the patient.

Dr. Pham Thi Hien - Head of Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, said: "Previously, to treat genital prolapse, doctors often applied vaginal hysterectomy, reconstructed the anterior and posterior vaginal walls or performed vaginal suture surgery."

This technique will overcome the disadvantages of the old method, which is to keep the patient's uterus.

The cause of genital prolapse is due to women having multiple pregnancies, giving birth close together, not receiving safe and proper delivery, or having a perineal tear that is not sutured. Heavy labor or too soon after giving birth increases abdominal pressure, pressing on the soft pelvic floor, which can easily cause genital prolapse. Causes of increased abdominal pressure such as carrying heavy loads, long-term constipation, prolonged coughing, street vendors who often sit on the sidewalk, and nutritional disorders in the elderly, weakened uterine suspension and support systems, etc. can also easily lead to genital prolapse.

After the surgery, the patient gradually recovered. It is known that this is the first grade IV genital prolapse surgery of Tan Ky Medical Center using the method of suturing the uterus to the abdominal wall through a single troca-hole laparoscopic incision.
