Abstract
Objective:
Native tissue plasty for surgical repair of anterior prolapse segment is associated with high level of recurrent defects.
Material And Methods:
We used a transvaginal polypropylen tension-free mesh fixed through the obturator hole with Emmet needle. We report the results of a total of 103 consecutive transobturator mesh fixations between January 1, 2000 and June 30, 2002.
Results:
Vaginal erosion ratio is 5% and recurrence ratio is 3% at 18 months post operative follow-up.
Conclusion:
Transobturator mesh is a safe and efficient method for anterior segment prolapse repair.
