A cystocele (/ËsÉªstÉsiËl/ SIS-tÉ-seel) is a medical condition that occurs when the tough fibrous wall between a woman's bladder and her vagina (the pubocervical fascia) is torn by childbirth, allowing the bladder to herniate into the vagina.Urethroceles often occur with cystoceles. cystocele is mild (grade 1) when the bladder droops only a short way into the vagina. With more severe (grade 2) cystocele, the bladder sinks far enough to reach the opening of the vagina.
What is a cystocele and rectocele repair? Cystocele and rectocele repair is surgery to lift and tighten the tissue around the bladder and rectum so that these organs no longer push into the vagina. When is it used? A cystocele happens when the bladder pushes against weakened tissue in the vagina and drops down into the vagina. A rectocele happens when the rectum bulges into the vagina. These problems can cause discomfort, leaking of urine or bowel movements, bladder infections, constipation, and pain during sex. Surgery may be done to relieve these symptoms.
