Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) are female benign pelvic floor diseases which can be treated by surgery. Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery was performed on 5 cases of POP and 1 case of VVF in our hospital.
POP cases : An average age of 5 cases was 63.6 y.o and 2 patients had hysterectomy before robot assisted laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (RSC). In 3 cases, RSC was performed after subtotal hysterectomy. Consol time of RSC was 206.2 minutes on average. After 1 year, there is no recurrence of symptom in all patients. VVF case : A 51 y.o female suffered from total urinary incontinence after hysterectomy visited us. A 20 mm fistula between bladder and vagina was found by cystoscopy. Robot-assisted laparoscopic repair of VVF was administered for fisterectomy and reconstruction of bladder and vagina wall (Consol time was 120 minutes). The patient discharged on the 7th postoperative day and keeps urinary continence.
