What Are The Risks Associated With Sacrocolpopexy?

Sacrocolpopexy is a relatively safe operation in good hands. However, like all surgical operations, complications may occasionally occur. These include:

• Bleeding
• Infection
• Injury to surrounding organs (e.g. nerve or blood vessels, ureter, bladder & intestines)
• Formation of blood clot in the legs or lungs
• Recurrence of vaginal prolapse
• Slow return of bowel or bladder function
• Erosion of synthetic material through vaginal mucosa
