Abstract:
A unit specializing in the surgical repair of vaginal vault prolapse was formed. The objective was to treat all kinds of defects in local anaesthesia with a hospital stay not exceeding 24 hours. Almost 800 women have been operated upon in the manner outlined in less than 26 months time. All but nine patients were dismissed as scheduled. Morbidity was low.
