Detailed explanation-1: -Cystorrhaphy-suturing of the bladder.
Detailed explanation-2: -The suture patterns that surgeons use in a cystorrhaphy are Cushing and Connell sutures. They execute these sutures continuously and uninterruptedly. Since the urinary bladder is thin (2mm-4mm), the surgeon must not penetrate the lumen while performing these sutures.
Detailed explanation-3: -Bladder augmentation (also known as a cystoplasty) is an operation to enlarge the bladder using a piece of the body’s own tissue. This is usually the large or small intestine, but the ureters or even the stomach can be used.
