Posterior IVS for vault suspension: A re-evaluation

نویسنده

  • BRUCE FARNSWORTH
چکیده

The PIVS was originally described by Petros as a vault suspension procedure. It was presented as an alternative to the sacrospinous fixation, transabdominal sacropexy and McCull culdoplasty.1 As a day surgery procedure it had the potential to be used in a number of patients with medical conditions that made traditional surgery seem too risky to consider routinely. Within a short time of initial reports of this procedure focus shifted to the problems associated with the multifilament nature of the IVS tape (Tyco Healthcare, USA) and the impact of the novel surgical approach was diminished by this controversy.2 Outcome data is presented of 127 patients who underwent follow-up after a PIVS using the original device.
