Combined laparoscopic surgery with a perineal approach was performed. The pelvic floor defect was repaired by a biological mesh and one pedicle skin flap. No signs of recurrence were indicated during the 2 years of follow-up.CONCLUSIONThe combination of laparoscopic surgery with a perineal approach was effective. The use of the biological mesh and pedicle skin flap to restructure the pelvic floor was effective.
