Transobturator Repair by Vaginal Plastron

Overview

The autologous vaginal route consists of repairing the genital prolapse through the vagina using the patient's tissues without a prosthesis. Vaginal prostheses are actually currently prohibited in France \[1, 2\]. The autologous vaginal route is the quickest surgery and it can be done under spinal anesthesia, which constitutes arguments for offering it to elderly and fragile patients. The autologous vaginal approach gives functional and subjective results similar to promontofixation \[2\]. There are many surgical techniques that make it difficult to assess the recurrence rate in the literature. Autologous vaginal surgery provides a good degree of satisfaction for patients despite the risk of recurrence \[3\]. We propose to describe the results of the transobturator cystocele repair by vaginal plastron, a technique which seems reproducible and effective to us.
