Summary:
Objective: Assessment of the effects of a new surgical method for complex resolution of pelvic floor
defects.
Subjective: Case study.
Setting: Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Bata Hospital, Zlín
Methods and results: We evaluated the procedures and results of the new TVM (transvaginal mesh) surgical
method which we used in a group of 12 patients. Ten patients had vaginal prolapse following vaginal
hysterectomy and in two cases there was uterine prolapse and vaginal prolapse. Only in one case there
was a small protrusion in the range of 0.5 cm which we resolved by removal of the penetrated section.
The resulting anatomic effect was very good in all the cases.
Key words:
TVM (transvaginal mesh), uterine prolapse, vaginal prolapse
