What is Pelvic and Vaginal Reconstruction?

What is Pelvic and Vaginal Reconstruction?

Pelvic and vaginal reconstruction involves the surgical restoration of the pelvic floor, vaginal canal, and surrounding soft tissues, especially after damage caused by:

  • Gynecologic cancer surgeries (e.g., cervical, uterine, or vaginal cancer)
  • Radiotherapy
  • Congenital defects or traumatic injury
  • Post-oncologic wide excision of pelvic structures

Goals of the Surgery

  • Restore structural integrity and function of bones and soft tissues affected by cancer or trauma.
  • Achieve limb salvage to preserve mobility and avoid amputation whenever possible.
  • Rebuild complex defects using advanced microsurgical free flaps or local flap coverage.
  • Ensure optimal aesthetic and functional outcomes with minimal complications.
  • Improve overall quality of life by enabling patients to return to daily activities confidently.

Indications for Surgery

  • Vaginal stenosis or absence post-cancer surgery leading to discomfort and functional challenges.
  • Fistula formation causing abnormal connections between pelvic organs.
  • Pelvic organ prolapse resulting in descent of pelvic structures.
  • Painful intercourse or functional impairment affecting quality of life after treatment.
  • Complex cancer-related pelvic deformities requiring specialized reconstructive surgical interventions.

Types of Reconstruction Techniques

Depending on the extent of tissue loss and patient needs, Dr. Saxena may use:

Local and Regional Flap Techniques

  • Gracilis Muscle Flap
  • Gluteal Fold Flap
  • Pudendal Thigh Flap

Free Flap with Microsurgical Reconstruction

  • Radial Forearm Free Flap
  • ALT (Anterolateral Thigh) Flap

Additional Surgical Techniques

  • Vaginal reconstruction with skin grafts
  • Pelvic floor reconstruction using biological or synthetic mesh
  • Nerve-sparing dissection techniques

What to Expect After Surgery

Post-Surgery

  • Mild swelling, bruising, or discomfort is common and managed with medication.

  • Hospital stay typically ranges from 2 to 5 days for monitoring and early recovery.
  • You’ll be advised to avoid strenuous activities, lifting, and sexual activity initially.

Recovery Milestones

  • Most patients resume light daily activities within 2–3 weeks.
  • Surgical site healing is monitored closely during the first month.
  • Full tissue healing and reconstruction stability may take up to 6–8 weeks.
  • Long-term functional improvements in comfort and confidence are expected over 3–6 months.

Follow-Up Care

Consistent follow-up is key to a successful recovery and long-term durability of the reconstruction.

Follow-up Schedule

  • Initial follow-up visit is typically scheduled within 7–10 days post-surgery.
  • Subsequent follow-ups are spaced at 2 weeks, 1 month, and 3 months intervals.
  • Long-term reviews may be advised at 6 months and 1 year to monitor recovery.
  • Additional visits may be required based on healing, symptoms, or complications.

Follow-Up Care

  • Wound healing and surgical site integrity are assessed during each visit.
