Southern Cross Christchurch Hospital - Gynaecology
Private Surgical Service, Obstetrics and Gynaecology
This is where you will come to have your surgery performed. The visits to your surgeon before and after surgery will be at their consulting rooms.
Pelvic Floor Repair
An incision (cut) is made in your navel (tummy button) and several small cuts in the abdomen (stomach). A thin telescopic instrument (laparoscope) is inserted through your navel, allowing the surgeon a view of the pelvic floor. Small instruments are inserted into the cuts that can lift the prolapsed or sagging organs back into position and reattach them.
