Final answer:

The procedure performed on the patient with a cystocele and rectocele could have been an anterior colporrhaphy or a posterior colporrhaphy.

Step-by-step explanation:

The procedure performed on the patient who was admitted with a cystocele and rectocele could have been either an anterior colporrhaphy or a posterior colporrhaphy. An anterior colporrhaphy involves repairing the front wall of the vagina where the cystocele occurs, while a posterior colporrhaphy repairs the back wall where the rectocele occurs.
