Surgery for bladder prolapse is not a major operation.
Bladder prolapse occurs mostly in women, and the causes are related to obesity, menopause, pregnancy, childbirth or congenital factors. It is often accompanied by stress incontinence (uncontrolled outflow of urine from the urethra when the abdominal pressure is increased by sneezing, coughing, etc.), and the prolapsed bladder can be retrieved after bed rest.
The treatment of bladder prolapse requires long-term persistence. Conservative treatment includes pelvic floor muscle training, biofeedback therapy (microcurrent stimulation of specific muscle groups to restore the functional status of local muscles) and so on.
Bladder neck suspension is the most common surgical treatment for bladder prolapse, adding support to the bladder neck and urethra, thus reducing the risk of stress incontinence. The bladder base and neck are suspended from the ligaments and muscles of the pelvic floor muscles during surgery. Bladder prolapse surgery is generally not considered major surgery as it is less damaging to the patient, the surgery barely affects organ function and the prognosis is better.
When bladder prolapse occurs, the patient needs to go to the hospital, and the treatment of the disease needs to be carried out under the guidance of a professional doctor.
