A total colpocleisis was carried out as a first line therapy. A recurrence occurred 8 months after the first surgery. We used a customized single-incision vaginal mesh for the relapse operation.

However, the exact working mechanisms behind this therapy are not yet fully understood. The current study aims to elucidate the potential physiological mechanisms underlying this minimally invasive intervention.</p></div><div><h3>Methods:</h3><p>We have evaluated video urodynamic data in women undergoing this therapy (n = 5), during which participants were asked to cough with increasing intensity. For each participant, we have videos before insertion of the balloon and one week following insertion. We identified a frame in a resting situation in which the maximum horizontal and vertical bladder dimensions were measured. We expressed the maximum vertical diameter as a ratio of the maximum horizontal diameter. We then used custom-written scripts to identify the bladder and balloon in each frame of the video urodynamic investigation and subtracted information regarding the location of the bladder neck and diameters of the balloon. We then used this information to plot the displacement of the bladder neck and size of the balloon during coughing.</p></div><div><h3>Results:</h3><p>The diameters of the balloon were significantly decreased during coughing (p <span><math><mo>≤</mo></math></span> 0.05).

The balloon is indicated to absorb some of the increases in intravesical pressure during episodes of high abdominal pressure. We propose that the balloon inwardly pushes the bladder wall upwards, causing the organ to acquire a more vertically oriented shape.
