[Current aspects of surgical treatment of prolapse of internal female genital organs].

A study in 128 women with variable degrees of prolapse of the internal genitalia has identified significant functional abnormalities of both the genital and pelvic organs. Combined biphasic surgical treatment was performed simultaneously or at an interval of 3-6 months. The operation consisted in fixation of the uterus (its stump or the vaginal dome) using an aponeurotic flap and colpoperineolevatoroplasty. Long-term results were evaluated at 0.5 to 7 years. Complete anatomic and functional rehabilitation was achieved in 95.4% and a significant improvement in 3.8% of the patients.
