Summary

Anterior-apical compartment mesh implants for pelvic floor reconstruction are anchored here to the Sacro-Spinous ligaments and evaluated being a feasible and effective method.

Detailed description

Anterior-apical compartment mesh implants for pelvic floor reconstruction are frequently anchored to the Arcus Tendinous Fascia Pelvis (ATFP) rather than to the Sacro-Spinous (SS) ligaments commonly used for the posterior compartment reconstruction. The SS ligament suspension for apical support mesh fixation is thought to yield higher and stronger anchoring point than the ATFP. The authors presumed that anterior mesh fixation to the sacro-spinous ligament are both, feasible and effective.
