Findings:

  • The surgical procedure included vaginal hysterectomy with pelvic floor repair for genital prolapse.
  • Laparoscopic rectopexy was performed concurrently to treat the rectal prolapse.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the feasibility and potential efficacy of a combined vaginal and laparoscopic approach for mixed pelvic floor prolapse.
