First, thank you for taking the time to answer the prior questions and for answering these:

>>I would also like to know the likelihood of a reoccurance of prolapse after a hysterectomy has been performed.
>
***there are no good statistics on this. >
&& Any particular reason there aren't any existing studies going on?

>>What procedures would you suggest that have a higher rate of success for both bladder and rectocele repair.
>
*****depending upon the evaluation, there are several different surgical repair techniques for cystocele (bladder) repair. Some are vaginal and some are abdominal. the rectocele repair has many different proponents for different repair techniques as well. More is coming out daily from >the new subspecialty of urogynecology. BT|W, isn't there a new sectionon OBGYN.net for Urogynecology?
>
&& Can you give me an example of what's new these days as far as procedures? And no, there isn't a new section on urogynocology yet on this site..it's 'up and coming'. The current info on prolapse is only the basic explanation of what it is.

How long are these repairs supposed to last? >
*****Sorry for this but it depends upon the skill of the operator, the technique selected and how well it suits the particular problem. Usually many, many years. >
&& Have you done many of these type repairs?

Thanks again for your responses!! Ingrid
