This retrospective study assessed the surgical outcomes of patients for whom the transobturator polypropylene mesh kit was used for the management of pelvic organ prolapse (Gynecare Prolift) in a tertiary urogynaecological centre in Singapore from January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2007.
Vaginal vault prolapse after hysterectomy is a distressing complication for both the patient and the surgeon. Successful repair of post-hysterectomy vault prolapse is one of the most difficult problems in gynaecological surgery. The aim of the surgery should be to restore coital function and cure the prolapse permanently.
