Following steps will help to prevent recurrence
of prolapsed. How many of us perform
repair or corrective surgery in the form of as described below.
A) Plication of Pubo cervical ligaments (most
cephalic part of ligament) which is quite thick and easily detectable & also
rest of vesico urethral fascia. Occasionally
there is a threat of pricking some vessels in the root of P Cx lig if Assistant
is distracted ( speaks to someone else at OT) or Needle holder is old or filled
with serum or light & positioning is
poor. I have done it about 1 dozen time out of 5000 VH with repair since 1966
to 2015 , but it will be purudent not to control the
bleeding by purse string suture because with rise of BP and tractions made by
repair may cause B lig Hematoma later.
B) To supplement & repair of enterocele either as therapeutic procedure (preoperatively
demonstrable) or as prophylactic step by identifying cephalic part of Utero Sacral ligaments at vault and apply series of —Purse string suture fixed with ant tinae of
Pelvic colon,-à
lat wall of pelvis-this time avoiding ureters on side walls –by dragging down I
P lig stump . Four or 5 tiers of silk may be necessary depending upon
preexisting degree of enterocele, Honestly speaking at this juncture one can
repair the high rectocele component but being careful not to shorten the vagina
in width or caliber . Usually most of us old persons(I am aged 76 yrs) are
still happy, comfortable with 00-Anacap silk –thereby obliterating POD
altogether resulting into finally achieving
adequate length of post vagina(point D as it called in POP-Q
classification –Quantification) . I have performed 4 times hematoma on ant wall of P colon –which however was quickly
repaired and dealt with & about 7 times slipping of omentum adherent with
uterus out of PID or MTP perforations which was also dealt with by purse sting
by putting a moist roller gauze inside
the abd cavity and gently drawing it out. By doing so the offending omentum
will peep and large torn distal end of omentum which slipped become visible,
Q. 3. The next step will be to oppose Mc Ligament
medial parts as a support of vault and thereby assuring near 100% prevention of
vault prolapsed at a later date. I must again confess that I have injured about
7 times some veins in the upper part of ureteric tunnel (roof of ureter as it
enters into MC ligament) but easily repaired. For beginner I like to convey that that ureters can be traced vaginally too by making
a gentle nick on lat wall of pelvis and
identified by rolling it like spermatic cord or thick thread . Then only one
can pass stitch to tie the offending vessels. But this bleeding from ureteric
roof occur only cases of gross PID or say endometriosis if it is really from
ureteric roof which has to be dissected & clamped in Wertheim’s opn. It will
be safer to have a look in the bladder cavity so that urinary spurts are
visible on either side → liberal availability of Cystoscope one can do always
Cystoscopic before closure if in doubt.
Q.4. how many members feel narrowing of total
length of vagina can be prevented by TR closure of vagina? Members practice
pattern Pl.
These steps, I feel are essential for Indian Rural
women who have to work hard say lifting bucket full of water or carrying heavy household
material from market or roof house and sometimes assisting her family members
in agricultural works. Member’s opinion please on this prophylactic or therapeutic
approach along with vaginal hysterectomy.
