Reversal of colpocleisis-A surgical technique for recurrent pelvic organ prolapse.

Given the rarity of recurrent pelvic organ prolapse after obliterative procedures and the paucity of data in the literature on this topic, optimal management is challenging. We describe a technique of reversal of colpocleisis in an 81-year-old woman with recurrent prolapse as the first step in a staged, reconstructive procedure. Basic principles underlying our approach include multidisciplinary team involvement, detailed preoperative planning, and a series of investigations including different imaging modalities and a meticulous stepwise surgical technique.
