Case description

The video presents a novel approach to repairing a lateral paravaginal defect which leads to cystocele development. This extraperitoneal (preperitoneal) approach has its advantages and can be performed in patients with comorbidities and also on obese patients. The main advantage of this procedure is that it doesn’t involve the pneumoperitoneum and the Trendelenburg position is rendered unnecessary. The avoidance of peritoneal adhesions is yet another advantage to this method. The operating surgeon was Pawel Szymanowski MD, PhD.
