    Area of Science:

    • Gynecology
    • Pelvic Reconstructive Surgery

    Background:

    • Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) encompasses conditions like enterocele and vaginal vault prolapse.
    • Surgical interventions are crucial for managing severe cases of POP.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and long-term outcomes of posterior culdoplasty techniques.
    • To assess the suitability of different culdoplasty methods for various types of pelvic organ prolapse.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 68 cases treated with posterior culdoplasty over 22 years.
    • Analysis of indications, surgical techniques (Torpin wedge vs. McCall), and complications.
    • Specific focus on outcomes in patients with complete vaginal eversion.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • Torpin wedge culdoplasty yielded good results for moderate enteroceles.
    • McCall culdoplasty demonstrated very good long-term outcomes (2-22 years).
    • McCall technique was particularly effective in patients with complete vaginal eversion seeking to preserve sexual function.

    Conclusions:

    • Posterior culdoplasty is an effective surgical option for pelvic organ prolapse.
    • The McCall technique offers superior long-term results, especially for vaginal vault prolapse and preserving sexual function.
