Nov 19th, 2020 - To determine the differences and challenging aspects of dynamic magnetic resonance defecography (MRD) compared to conventional defecography (CD) in diagnostic of clinical symptomatic pelvic floor dysfunction. Fifty patients (44 females, 6 males; m...

Nov 16th, 2020 - Posterior compartment prolapse is commonly due to a 'true' rectocele, i.e., a diverticulum of the rectal ampulla. This condition is associated with symptoms of obstructed defecation and may contribute to prolapse symptoms. We tested the hypothesis...

Oct 14th, 2020 - When Rectocele is part of a complex pelvic organ prolapse, a full repair is recommended. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiological results after laparoscopic surgery in patients with symptomatic rectocele and III/IV stage...

Oct 14th, 2020 - Management of rectocele is challenging. Treatment usually starts with conservative measures and may involve surgical intervention in non-responding patients. We compared the outcomes of transvaginal posterior colporrhaphy (PC) and laparoscopic ven...

Oct 8th, 2020 - Enteroceles and rectoceles are often identified as the cause of a vaginal mass and pelvic discomfort. The combination of a rectocele and an enterocele as pelvic organ prolapses is not infrequent; however, there are few reports on possible simultan...

Oct 26th, 2018 - The symptoms of constipation and obstructed defecation are common in women with pelvic floor disorders. Female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery specialists evaluate and treat women with these symptoms, with the initial consultation often...

May 30th, 2017 - Reader inquires about coding for McCall culdoplasty It is difficult to know what CPT code to use for billing when my practice’s physicians do a McCall culdoplasty during a vaginal or laparoscopic hysterectomy. They often do a McCall procedure when.

Jun 1st, 2006 - The concept of using grafts or mesh for rectocele repair—as well as for other hernias of pelvic organ support—makes sense. Their use can restore correct anatomical support by recreating and/or augmenting the fascial layer, enabling us to provide a.

Colporrhaphy? Do not code for posterior repair Q We have been told that we can report code 45560 (repair of rectocele [separate procedure]) for posterior repair of a rectocele. I’ve noted that the relative value units (RVUs) for this procedure are.

FIGURE 1 Lower transverse tear FIGURE 2 Upper transverse tear U-shaped tears Another not uncommon type of defect can be U-shaped, either at the bottom, as depicted in FIGURE 3, or at the top of the posterior pelvic compartment. Similarly linear (l.

All defects should be repaired at the time of pelvic floor reconstructive surgery. Any tear or defect in the area of the perineal membrane or PB should be repaired concurrently with pelvic floor reconstruction.
