| A cystocele or anterior vaginal wall prolapse is when the bladder falls down and often becomes visible. Urinary leakage often accompanies a cystocele. |
| Cystoceles or anterior vaginal wall prolase may cause pelvic pressure or just be unsightly. Cystocele repair or Anterior Repair or Anterior Colporrhaphy is the surgical reduction of the bulge to place the bladder back into its normal anatomic location. The traditional repair of plicating or overlapping tissues with suture unfortunately has a very high failure rate ranging from 25 to 60 percent. |
| For now, It is certainly one of the most challenging surgeries gynecologists and urogynecologists perform. |
| More modern surgery treats cystoceles as a hernia of the bladder into the vagina, hence, the use of mesh as a patch or graft has been gaining steady acceptance. Dr. Vitasna have some of the most extensive experience in this type of surgery with excellent success rates. |
| In our center Cystocele or Anterior Vaginal Repair is done in the operating room under general anesthesia. The procedure takes 60 minutes to perform. |

| All After pictures are taken just a few minutes after the operation, and show both swelling and stitches. The result will therefore improve even more after the stitches are removed and the swelling has come down. |
