Is rectocele surgery usually outpatient surgery or does it usually require a hospital stay?

It can be either: If the rectocoele is extensive and involving surrounding structures then it will probably be in patient. If it is just a simple vaginal wall intrusion, it can be done on an outpatient basis. Check with your surgeon as their surgical experience is tantamount to the decision.

Here are some...: Pursing less invasion and shorter hospital stay is a constantly evolving trend, but at the end, the degree of less stay still reflects the magnitude and complexity of surgery, the professional proficiency, confidence, and ethics, and the overall health and coping ability of patients. Hence, please ask your upcoming surgeon to assess the balance between being nice & being able and ethical. Best...
