About Bladder Neck Reconstruction

Bladder neck reconstruction is a specialized surgical procedure performed by a urologist to correct anatomical or functional issues at the junction where the bladder meets the urethra (the bladder neck). This area acts as a crucial valve for urinary control. The surgery is typically indicated for conditions like bladder neck contracture (scarring), intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) leading to severe stress urinary incontinence, or congenital abnormalities. The goal is to restore the bladder neck's proper funnel shape and function, thereby improving urinary continence, facilitating complete bladder emptying, and preventing complications like recurrent infections or kidney damage. The approach can be open, laparoscopic, or robotic, depending on the patient's specific condition and surgeon expertise.

Key Highlights

    Restores proper urinary control and continence, significantly improving quality of life.Addresses the root cause of bladder outlet obstruction, improving bladder emptying.Can prevent long-term complications like recurrent urinary tract infections or kidney damage.Offers a definitive surgical solution for complex incontinence cases unresponsive to simpler treatments.Modern techniques (e.g., robotic-assisted) may allow for greater precision and potentially faster recovery.

Who is this surgery for?

  • Bladder neck contracture (scarring) often following prostate surgery or radiation therapy.
  • Intrinsic Sphincter Deficiency (ISD) causing severe stress urinary incontinence.
  • Congenital abnormalities of the bladder neck, such as in some pediatric urology cases.
  • Failed previous anti-incontinence surgeries requiring revision.
  • Neurogenic bladder dysfunction where the bladder neck does not open properly during voiding.

How to prepare

  • Comprehensive urodynamic testing to precisely evaluate bladder and sphincter function.
  • Pre-operative imaging, such as a cystoscopy, to visualize the bladder neck anatomy.
  • Complete medical evaluation, including blood tests and possibly cardiac clearance.
  • Discussion and cessation of medications that increase bleeding risk (e.g., blood thinners, NSAIDs) as advised by the doctor.
  • Fasting for 8-12 hours before the surgery as per anesthesia guidelines.

Risks & possible complications

  • Standard surgical risks: bleeding, infection, or adverse reaction to anesthesia.
  • Urinary retention requiring temporary catheterization.
  • Recurrence of the contracture or persistent incontinence.
  • Injury to nearby structures like the urethra, rectum, or nerves.
  • Development of new urinary symptoms, such as urgency or frequency.
  • Erectile dysfunction (a risk, particularly if surgery is near nerves).

Recovery & hospital stay

  • Hospital stay is typically required for initial monitoring and pain management.
  • A urinary catheter will be in place for several days to weeks to allow healing.
  • Patients are advised to avoid heavy lifting, strenuous activity, and straining for 4-6 weeks.
  • Follow-up appointments are crucial for catheter removal and to assess healing and urinary function.
  • Drinking plenty of fluids is encouraged to flush the urinary system.
  • Full recovery of strength and resumption of all normal activities may take several weeks to months.
  • checked Typical hospital stay: 2-5 days
  • checked Expected recovery time: 4-6 weeks for initial recovery; 3-6 months for full functional recovery

PATIENT REVIEW

My dad was admitted to MGM...

My dad was admitted to MGM with a bad fever and we were all worried. Dr. Ramya Shri was the one who really talked to us. She didn't just give medical updates; she explained things in a way we could understand, told us what to watch for at home, and actually listened to our concerns. It made a stressful time much easier to handle.
