Positioning the Patient During Posterior Sagittal Anorectovagino-Urethroplasty / PSARVUP
Colorectal surgeons at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center provide information about positioning the patient during Posterior Sagittal Anorectovagino-Urethroplasty / PSARVUP.
The patient is placed in a prone position with the pelvis elevated as discussed before. No attempt is made to place a Foley catheter into the bladder prior to the operation because there is no control of the direction of the catheter being passed through a single common channel through the perineum.
For more information or to request an appointment, please contact the Colorectal Center at Cincinnati Children's.
