Functional Restoration: Repair of Bowel and Bladder Injuries What is the Repair Pathway? In the context of complex gynaecological surgery—such as advanced endometriosis excision or radical hysterectomy—the bladder or bowel can occasionally be affected due to their close proximity to the reproductive organs. This pathway involves the immediate or delayed surgical correction of these tissues to ensure they are leak-proof and fully functional. [Image showing the anatomical proximity of the bladder, uterus, and rectum] Our specialists utilize Laparoscopic, Robotic, or Open surgical techniques to perform primary closure (suturing) of the injury site. In cases of bladder repair (cystostomy), the focus is on a watertight seal; for bowel repair (enterorrhaphy), the goal is to maintain an unobstructed and healthy passage for digestion. Why is this Procedure Personally Vital for You? Restoring the integrity of the urinary and digestive tracts is essential for your long-term health and comfort. This pathway is personally vital for you if: Structural Integrity has been Compromised: Whether due to "frozen pelvis" complications or accidental trauma, a surgical repair is necessary to prevent internal leaks (fistulas) and infection. You Require Multidisciplinary Expertise: Our gynaecological surgeons work in tandem with Urologists and Colorectal Surgeons to ensure the repair meets the highest sub-specialty standards. Functional Recovery is the Priority: This pathway is not just about "closing a wound," but about ensuring that your bladder can hold volume and your bowels can move naturally without pain or restriction. Prevention of Long-term Complications: Timely and precise repair is the only way to avoid chronic issues such as urinary incontinence, recurrent infections, or digestive blockages. The Path to Internal Healing and Stability The goal of this program is to achieve a perfect anatomical seal and stabilize your excretory functions. This pathway is designed to: Provide Precision Surgical Suturing: We use specialized, absorbable sutures and "tissue glues" to reinforce the repair site, ensuring the organ remains flexible as it heals. Ensure Clinical Readiness through Rigorous Screening: To assess the extent of the repair needed and ensure systemic safety, we require a full medical history, diagnostic X-rays (including chest X-rays and specialized imaging like a Cystogram or CT with Contrast), and comprehensive blood tests (including kidney function, electrolyte panels, and inflammatory markers). A Focused Recovery and Stabilization Window: Because these organs are constantly in use, they require a dedicated 2–3 week recovery and stabilization period. During this window, we focus on "resting" the organs (often via a temporary urinary catheter or a specialized low-residue diet), monitoring for signs of internal leakage, and ensuring your digestive and urinary systems are perfectly stabilized before you resume a normal lifestyle. All details are subject to doctor evaluation for the final treatment plan.
