Colpocleisis Techniques: An Open-and-shut Case for Advanced Pelvic Organ Prolapse.

Objective: To highlight several advanced surgical techniques for all types of colpocleisis. Pelvic organ prolapse is a common condition that affects up to 40% of the postmenopausal female population. Particularly for women with advanced pelvic organ prolapse who no longer desire penetrative vaginal intercourse and with multiple medical comorbidities, the obliterative approach is preferred due to decreased anesthetic needs, operative time, and perioperative morbidity.
