Abstract

Vaginal vault prolapse is observed with increasing frequency in the era of large ageing populations. Various surgical techniques have been established, varying in performance, difficulty and outcome, specifically complications. A bilateral sacrospinous colposuspension technique (BSC) with a corresponding mesh prosthesis was developed using a direct I-Stitch fixation of the 38 micro-gram mesh from the vaginal apex or uterine cervix to the sacrospinous ligament or the para-sacral tendinous region for the treatment of an anatomical central pelvic floor defect. As a minimally invasive approach with the potential for conservation of the uterus, this technique should be applicable to all age groups including the increasingly frequent elderly patient with significant comorbidities.
