Massive vaginal prolapse in ten post-hysterectomy women was treated by expanded polytetrafluoroethylene graft along the course of the round ligaments to anchor the vaginal vault to the lateral abdominal wall. Concurrent enterocele repair was done as well as other indicated abdominal or vaginal operations. Satisfactory coitus was reported in all cases. The procedure is technically simple and provides an alternative to sacral suspension or sacrospinous ligament suspension of the prolapsed vaginal vault.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
