Details and patient eligibility

About

Indirect promontofixation with prostheses is the standard surgical technique for the reference of uterine prolapse. There is no validated examination to control the position of the prostheses postoperatively.

These prostheses are echogenic and perineal ultrasound could be a means of postoperative monitoring. There is no data in the literature on the relationship between prosthesis position and postoperative symptoms
