Nombres alternativos

Antes del procedimiento:

Coméntele siempre al médico o a la enfermera qué fármacos está tomando, incluso medicamentos, suplementos o hierbas que haya comprado sin una receta.

Durante los días antes de la cirugía:

  • Le pueden solicitar que deje de tomar ácido acetilsalicílico (aspirin), ibuprofeno (Advil, Motrin), warfarina (Coumadin) y cualquiera otro fármaco que dificulte la coagulación de la sangre.
  • Pregúntele al médico qué fármacos debe tomar aun el día de la cirugía.

En el día de la cirugía:

  • Generalmente, se le solicitará no beber ni comer nada durante 6 a 12 horas antes del procedimiento.
  • Tome los fármacos que el médico le recomendó con un pequeño sorbo de agua.
  • El médico o la enfermera le dirán a qué hora debe llegar al hospital.

Después del procedimiento:

Usted puede tener una sonda para drenar la orina durante 1 ó 2 días después de la cirugía.

Usted estará con dieta líquida inmediatamente después la cirugía y, cuando su actividad intestinal normal retorne, podrá volver a su alimentación habitual.

Pronóstico:

Esta cirugía normalmente reparará el prolapso y la mayoría de las veces los síntomas desaparecerán. Esta mejoría con frecuencia durará por años.
