“…In 1981, Goldman [31] described outcomes in 118 women undergoing LeFort colpocleisis. Mean hospital stay was 8 days, and postoperatively ''good anatomic results'' were found in 91% of patients.…”

“…Before the advent of endometrial biopsy and endovaginal ultrasound for the evaluation of the endometrium, multiple authors report performing diagnostic dilation and curettage before colpocleisis [8][9][10][11]. In these series, there are no reports of the prevalence of the intrauterine pathology found, or whether any of these cases then proceeded to hysterectomy.…”

Pyometra necessitating hysterectomy after colpocleisis in an extremely elderly patient

As the number of women more than the age 65 increases, so will the need for treatment of pelvic organ prolapse and the comorbidities that come with surgical treatment of an aging population gain significance. Colpocleisis is an option for women failing or refusing conservative prolapse management and not desiring sexual function. The advantages of colpocleisis are decreased operative time, low complication rate, and ability to use local or regional anesthesia. We report a case of a 95-year-old woman whose procidentia was treated with colpocleisis. Endometrial evaluation with dilation and curettage was performed at the time of colpocleisis. Postoperative course was complicated by pyometra necessitating total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingoopherectomy, leading to further complications including deep vein thrombosis, anemia, atrial fibrillation, and pleural effusions. Preoperative versus intraoperative endometrial evaluation may decrease the risk of developing pyometra after colpocleisis and, therefore, diminish the possibility of multiple complications.

“…Out of the remaining 38 articles only 23 were based on studies focusing on colpocleisis or colpectomy and related surgical techniques or outcome measures. Some reports focused on clinical outcomes following partial Neugebauer-Le Fort colpocleisis, total colpocleisis or partial colpectomy [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. These papers dealt mainly with objective or subjective cure rates after prolapse surgery.…”

How can we manage urinary incontinence following radical colpectomy? Literature review apropos of a rare entity

Urinary incontinence following radical oncologic colpectomy is a rare condition with severe reduction of quality of life. A systematic review of the literature was performed to find the optimal incontinence therapy for these patients. The database search revealed no systematic therapeutic concept. We present a case of a postmenopausal, hysterectomized virgin who underwent radical laparoscopic colpectomy for vaginal melanoma with consecutive de novo predominant stress urinary incontinence. Transurethral submucosal injection of the bulking agent polyacrylamide-hydrogel resulted in a substantial relief of discomfort. In combination with the serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor duloxetine the patient was fully satisfied. As demonstrated by this case minimally invasive treatment of postoperative urinary incontinence after colpectomy seems to be a valuable therapeutic option to allow a fast relief of urinary incontinence symptoms and discomfort.
