Pelvic Floor Dysfunction Treatment in Bangalore
Tumblr media
Pelvic floor dysfunction is the inability to correctly tighten and relax the pelvic floor muscles to have a bowel movement. Symptoms include constipation, urine or stool leakage and a frequent need to urinate. Treatments include biofeedback, medication or surgery.
What is the pelvic floor?
Both men and women have a pelvic floor. In women, the pelvic floor is the muscles, ligaments, connective tissues and nerves that support the bladder, uterus, vagina and rectum and help these pelvic organs function. In men, the pelvic floor includes the muscles, tissues and nerves that support the bladder, rectum and other pelvic organs.
The pelvic floor muscles stretch like a muscular trampoline from the tailbone (coccyx) to the pubic bone (front to back) and from one sitting bone to the other sitting bone (side to side). These muscles are normally firm and thick.
Just like a trampoline, the pelvic floor is able to move down and up. The bowel, bladder and uterus (for women) lie on the pelvic floor muscle layer.
The pelvic floor muscle layer has hole for passages to pass through. There are two passages in men (the anus and urethra) and three passages in women (the anus, urethra, and vagina). The pelvic floor muscles normally wrap quite firmly around these holes to help keep the passages shut. There is also an extra circular muscle around the anus (the anal sphincter) and around the urethra (the urethral sphincter).
Although the pelvic floor is hidden from view, it can be consciously controlled and therefore trained, much like our arm, leg or abdominal muscles.
Pelvic floor dysfunction symptoms
There are a number of symptoms associated with pelvic floor dysfunction. If you are diagnosed with pelvic floor dysfunction, you may experience symptoms including:
urinary issues, such as the urge to urinate or painful urination
constipation or bowel strains
lower back pain
pain in the pelvic region, genitals, or rectum
discomfort during sexual intercourse for women
pressure in the pelvic region or rectum
muscle spasms in the pelvis
What causes pelvic floor dysfunction?
While exact causes are still being researched, doctors can link pelvic floor dysfunction to conditions or events that weaken the pelvic muscles or tear connective tissue:
childbirth
traumatic injury to the pelvic region
obesity
pelvic surgery
nerve damage
How is pelvic floor dysfunction treated?
Pelvic floor dysfunction can often be successfully treated without surgery. Treatments for pelvic floor dysfunction include the following:
Biofeedback: The most common treatment for pelvic floor dysfunction is biofeedback, done with the help of a physical therapist. This non-painful, non-surgical technique provides improvement for more than 75% of people with pelvic floor dysfunction. Physical therapists may take several approaches to biofeedback to retrain the muscles. These include using special sensors and video to monitor the pelvic floor muscles as the patient attempts to relax or contract them. The therapist then provides feedback and works with the patient on improving his or her muscle coordination.
Medication: In some cases, your physician may prescribe a low-dose muscle relaxant to deal with pelvic floor dysfunction.
Relaxation techniques: Your physician or physical therapist may recommend relaxation techniques such as meditation, warm baths, yoga and exercises.
Surgery: If your physician determines your pelvic floor dysfunction is the result of a rectal prolapse (the tissue that lines the rectum falls down into the anal opening) or rectocele (the end of the rectum pushes through the wall of the vagina), surgery may be necessary. By using the defecating proctogram test, your physician should be able to determine if these conditions are causing your pelvic floor dysfunction. Occasionally, your surgeon may decide to inject Botox to relax the pelvic floor muscle.

Best Uterus Removal Surgery in Bangalore
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A radical hysterectomy removes all of the uterus, cervix, the tissue on both sides of the cervix, and the upper part of the vagina. A radical hysterectomy is most often used to treat certain types of cancer, such as cervical cancer. The Fallopian tubes and the ovaries may or may not be removed.
A hysterectomy is a surgery in which the uterus is removed. In addition to the uterus, other female organs may also be removed, such as the cervix, ovaries, and Fallopian tubes. After having a hysterectomy, you will not be able to have anymore children.
There are several different techniques in performing a hysterectomy.
An abdominal hysterectomy (TAH) is done through an incision on the lower part of the abdomen.
A vaginal hysterectomy (TVH) is done through an incision inside the vagina.
A laparoscopy assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) combines a laparoscopic procedure with a vaginal hysterectomy.
Dr.B. Ramesh will evaluate the size the uterus in addition to your other symptoms and recommend the hysterectomy that is best for you.
In addition to different techniques in performing a hysterectomy, there are also different types of hysterectomies.
They include:
A radical hysterectomy is the removal of the uterus (womb), cervix, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and pelvic lymph nodes. Since the ovaries are removed, you will be put into surgical menopause.
A total (simple) hysterectomy is the removal of the uterus and the cervix, but not the ovaries or tubes. You will not experience menopausal symptoms as a result of this surgery.
A subtotal (partial, supracervical) hysterectomy is the removal of the uterus, but the ovaries, cervix, and fallopian tubes are left in place. You will not experience menopausal symptoms after this surgery.
A total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy is the removal of the entire uterus, cervix, both ovaries and tubes. This will also put you into surgical menopause. If only one ovary is removed, it is called either a right or left salpingo-oophorectomy and the remaining ovary can maintain your estrogen levels to prevent menopause right away.
When is it used?
There are many reasons why a hysterectomy would be recommended, and they are:
tumors in the uterus (fibroids)
constant heavy bleeding that has not been controlled by medicine or dilatation and curettage (D&C)
endometriosis that causes pain or bleeding and does not respond to other treatments
chronic pelvic pain
a fallen (sagging) uterus referred to as prolapse
precancerous or cancerous cells or tissue on the cervix or in the uterus.
severe, chronic infections such as pelvic inflammatory disease
stress incontinence (loss of urine with coughing, sneezing, exercise)
benign ovarian tumor, if persistent or symptomatic
pelvic adhesions (bands of scar tissue)
Examples of alternatives to a hysterectomy are:
taking medicines to control the problem
having a hysteroscopy or laparoscopy
continue having D&Cs to control abnormal bleeding
choosing not to have treatment, recognizing the risks of your condition.
How do I prepare for a hysterectomy?
Plan for your care and recovery after the operation because you will have general anesthesia. Allow for time to rest. Try to find other people to help you with your day-to-day duties. Expect to stay in the hospital for 1-3 days before being allowed to go home. The time in the hospital depends on the extent of procedures that you had done with the hysterectomy.
You should not smoke before or after the surgery. Smokers heal more slowly after surgery. They are also more likely to have breathing problems during surgery. For this reason, if you are a smoker, you should quit at least 2 weeks before the procedure. It is best to quit 6 to 8 weeks before surgery. Also, your wounds will heal much better if you do not smoke after the surgery.
Eat a light meal, such as soup or salad, the night before the procedure. Do not eat or drink anything after midnight and the morning before the procedure. Do not even drink coffee, tea, or water.
You will need to recover at home for 4 to 6 weeks without work or heavy lifting. You will have a postoperative appointment at which time Dr.B. Ramesh can check on your recovery and review any restrictions with you.
What happens during the procedure?
You will be given a general anesthetic. A general anesthetic relaxes your muscles and causes a deep sleep. It will prevent you from feeling pain during the procedure.
Usually a catheter (small tube) is placed into your bladder through the urethra (the tube from the bladder to the outside). The catheter drains the bladder. You will have an IV in your arm to give you fluids and medicines.
Dr.B. Ramesh makes a cut in the abdominal wall to expose the ligaments and blood vessels around the uterus. The doctor separates the ligaments and blood vessels from the uterus. The doctor ties off the blood vessels so they will heal and not bleed. Then, the uterus is removed by cutting it off at the top of the vagina. The top of the vagina is repaired so that a hole is not left. If the procedure is done vaginally, there will not be any incisions on the abdomen. With laparascopic assisted vaginal hysterectomies, you will have an incision in the belly button and 3 small incisions in the lower abdomen along with the incision on the inside of the vagina.
What happens after the procedure?
The IV and catheter are removed 1 or 2 days after the surgery. You may stay in the hospital about 1 to 3 days.
After you go home, get plenty of rest. Do not do any heavy lifting or otherwise strain the stomach muscles for 4 to 6 weeks.
If you were having menstrual periods before the surgery, you will no longer have them after the operation. You also cannot become pregnant. If your ovaries were removed, menopause starts right away and Dr.B. Ramesh may prescribe hormone therapy. Be sure to discuss any concerns you have about these effects and treatments with him before the surgery.
What are the benefits of this procedure?
A hysterectomy takes care of problems you may have been having with your uterus. For example, it removes any tumors that may have been in your uterus which will decrease the back pain, cramps, pelvic pain and it stops menstrual periods.
What are the risks associated with this procedure?
There are some risks when you have general anesthesia.
excessive bleeding that may require a blood transfusion
inadvertent injury to the bladder, intestine, ureters (the tubes going from the kigneys to the bladder) or nerve damage
urinary tract infection
bowel obstruction
vaginal pain
fistula (abnormal opening) between vagina and bladder or rectum
infection of incision
blood clot in the legs that can travel to the lungs
the incision may open up

Laparoscopic Sling Procedures
The uterus, or womb, is a muscular structure that's held in place by pelvic muscles and ligaments.If these muscles or ligaments stretch or become weak, they're no longer able to support the uterus, causing prolapse.
Uterine prolapse occurs when the uterus sags or slips from its normal position and into the vagina, or birth canal.
Uterine prolapse may be incomplete or complete. An incomplete prolapse occurs when the uterus is only partly sagging into the vagina. A complete prolapse describes a situation in which the uterus falls so far down that some tissue rests outside of the vagina.
What is vaginal vault?
The vaginal vault is the expanded region of the vaginal canal at the internal end of the vagina. The vaginal vault may prolapse after a hysterectomy, as there is no uterus supporting the interior end of the vagina. The incidence of vaginal vault prolapse is approximately 15% after hysterectomy due to uterine prolapse, and approximately 1% after hysterectomy due to other reasons.
Tumblr media
What is sacrocolpopexy?
Sacrocolpopexy is a procedure to correct prolapse of the vaginal vault (top of the vagina) in women who have had a previous hysterectomy. The operation is designed to restore the vagina to its normal position and function.
How is it done?
Sacrocolpopexy Reconstruction is achieved with an open abdominal technique or with the use of minimally invasive techniques means laparoscopy.
The specific treatment approach is chosen in accordance with the type and degree of pelvic organ prolapse, as well as the severity of symptoms.
The key aspect of sacrocolpopexy is the suspension of the vaginal apex to the sacral promontory in a manner that recreates the natural anatomic support .
What happens during surgery?
Sacrocolpopexy is performed either through an abdominal incision or 'keyholes' under general anesthesia.
The vagina is first freed from the bladder at the front and the rectum at the back.
A graft made of permanent synthetic mesh is used to cover the front and the back surfaces of the vagina. The mesh is then attached to the sacrum (tail bone). The mesh is then covered by a layer of tissue called the peritoneum that lines the abdominal cavity; this prevents the bowel from getting stuck to the mesh. Sacrocolpopexy can be performed at the same time as surgery for incontinence or vaginal repair for bladder or bowel prolapse.
Tumblr media
What are the types of prolapse ?
Anterior defects with herniation of the urinary bladder creates a cystocele.
Apical defects include uterine prolapse or uterovaginal prolapse, vaginal cuff prolapse after hysterectomy, and enteroceles.
An enterocele is protrusion of the intestines into the apical vaginal wall and can be in either the anterior or posterior compartment.
All these types can occur with or without uterine prolapse or can be seen post hysterectomy.
What are Risk factors for pelvic organ prolapse ?
Increasing age.
Increasing body mass index (obesity).
Increasing gravidity/ number of pregnancy.
Increasing parity.
Number of vaginal deliveries.
Macrosomic delivery/bigbaby delivery.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Constipation.
Strenuous activity, weight bearing, or strenuous labor.
What are the Symptoms ?
Vaginal bulge.
Pelvic pressure.
Bleeding.
Infection.
Splinting or digitation (the need to manually assist in reducing prolapse, often to void or defecate).
Back pain.
What are the Concomitant symptoms ?
Urinary incontinence symptoms, such as stress, urgency, or postural incontinence.
Bladder storage symptoms, such as frequency, urgency, or overactive bladder syndrome.
Voiding symptoms, such as hesitancy, slow stream, straining, incomplete emptying, or position-dependent voiding.
Sexual dysfunction symptoms, such as dyspareunia(pain during sex) or obstructed intercourse.
Anorectal dysfunction, such as fecal incontinence, flatal incontinence, fecal urgency, straining to defecate, constipation, and incomplete evacuation.
What is the principle used?
The key aspect of sacral colpopexy is the use of a graft to support the vaginal wall and suspend the vault to the sacral promontory ( tail bone) to give the anatomic support.
Does the surgery need anaesthesia?
Laparoscopic technique is done under general anaesthesia after thorough examination and keeping in mind all comorbidities if any.
Any advantages of laparoscopy?
laparoscopic approach has less blood loss, less hospital stay, almost similar operative time. Less handling of tissues and no adhesions thus minimizing post surgery pain, better cosmetic results, less morbidity, and shorter postoperative recovery periods.
What are the after surgery care tips?
After surgery -patient can be discharged very next day provided :
her recovery is good .
tolerating orally .
well ambulating.
can resume normal activity in days.
What are the after surgery care tips?
After surgery -patient can be discharged very next day provided :
her recovery is good .
tolerating orally .
well ambulating.
can resume normal activity in days.
Any strenuous activity or heavy lifting should be avoided in the immediate postoperative period, usually 6-8 weeks, to allow adequate time for scar tissue formation.
Activities that generate perineal strain or trauma, such as bicycle riding, should be prohibited.
The patient must refrain from any sexual intercourse during healing.
Additionally, the patient should be instructed to not insert tampons or applicators into the vagina.
A course of antibiotics is often prescribed at discharge.
For postmenopausal patients with significant vaginal atrophy, short-term course of vaginal estrogen therapy is recommended (unless contraindicated) in order to maintain the integrity of pelvic tissues and to maximize surgical success.
What are the Nonsurgical treatments ?
For mild variety of descent-
losing weight to take stress off of pelvic structures.
avoiding heavy lifting.
doing Kegel exercises, which are pelvic floor exercises that help strengthen the vaginal muscles.
taking estrogen replacement therapy.
wearing a pessary, which is a device inserted into the vagina that fits under the cervix and helps push up and stabilize the uterus and cervix.
Tumblr media
what about sexual life after surgery?
Sexual activity/sexual urge will not be hampered with the surgery with added benefits of correction for incontinence and mass protruding from vagina.
Will I feel weak after surgery?
surgery will not hamper your physical strength or makes you weak with joint pain as thought always and does not deteriorate daily activity .
Laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy is safe cost effective and cosmetic and patient can really consider this option after weighing risks and benefits.
What is LAPAROSCOPIC SACRO CERVICOPEXY ?
Sacrocervicopexy is a procedure similar to sacrocolpopexy,done for uterine prolapse ie., when the uterus is still intact , in which a graft material is used to suspend the cervix to the ligament on the pelvic bone(anterior longitudinal ligament os sacrum).
Sacrocervicopexy can be performed either with uterine preservation or after supracervical hysterectomy.
Moreover, it preserves the integrity Of ligaments, which are the main supports of the vaginal apex.
Laparoscopic sacrocervicopexy is an effective option for women with pelvic organ prolapse who desire uterine preservation.
What will be the time period to go back to work ?
2-3 Days
Dietary restrictions if any?
To have a balanced diet.
Any form of exercises to be followed postop ?
Any form of physical activity say yoga,meditation,walking ,sport to keep urself fit n fine.
will there be weight gain later?
Well, Not Exactly. Surgery does not make you put on weight.might be the restriction of physical inactivity self imposed can lead to weight gain.
will there be low back ache after surgery ?
No, not because of surgery. it could be due to loss of bone mineral density which can be tackled with supplementary medicines and physical activity.

Pelvic Floor Disorders & Treatments in Bangalore
LAPOROSCOPIC PELVIC FLOOR REPAIR
Recent advances in laparoscopic surgery have helped surgeons repair many pelvic floor defects, which are often difficult to reach by the vaginal method. Examples include prolapse of the vaginal vault, enterocoele and paravaginal cystocoele.
How is laparoscopic repair performed?
In the laparoscopic procedure, the surgeons insert a tiny telescope (laparoscope) through a small incision at the umbilicus. This is attached to a camera-television setup, giving the surgeons a magnified view of the pelvic floor.
Via three keyhole incisions in the abdomen, the surgeons use specially designed instruments to lift and attach the prolapsed organs back to the ligament and muscle support with many non-absorbable sutures. The sutures act as a bridge allowing scar tissue to form the long-term support.
What are the benefits of laparoscopic pelvic floor repair?
Excellent view of the pelvic floor from above
Accurate identification of the pelvic floor defects
Minimising the need and extent of vaginal repair, thus reducing the risk of painful internal scars
Hysterectomy for uterine prolapse may be avoided or deferred until childbearing is completed
Restoration of normal pelvic anatomy is achievable
