Any surgical procedure carries a risk of complications. The most common complications of colovaginoplasty are infection, bleeding or haematoma and urinary retention.
Although rare, late postoperative complications such as vaginal or introitus stenosis, urethral or meatal stenosis, recto-vaginal fistula, clitoral distress, venous thrombosis or embolism are also possible.
Although remote, there is a possibility of colonic suture failure, which would require timely diagnosis and early reoperation. Rarely, the vagina may necrose due to lack of blood supply through the vascular pedicle.
In order to avoid possible complications and to know how to act in the event that they should arise, we will provide you with a follow-up email address, as well as a 24-hour telephone number for any queries or anomalies after the operation.
