Abstract:
We report a case of a hernia through the pelvic floor presenting as a paravaginal mass following a transvaginal fascial sling procedure. At exploration herniation through a defect in the pelvic floor was identified and repaired. To our knowledge this is the first reported case of levator hernia. The clinical and radiological findings and anatomy are presented, and treatment recommendations and etiology are discussed.
