Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To study the effectiveness of sacrospinous fixation for vault suspension in vault prolapse cases and to evaluate intra and post-operative complications associated with the procedure. METHODS: Twenty patients with vault prolapse were subjected to sacrospinous fixation and evaluated for postoperative complications. RESULTS: The intraoperative complication en- countered was vascular injury. Postoperative complications were fever and urinary tract infection. In all patients vaginal length from hymen to vault was 4cm to 5cm. Recurrence was not noted in the follow up period of 6 months. CONCLUSION: Sacrospinous fixation is a safe, effective, and simple procedure in patients with post hysterectomy vault prolapse.
