title: [Experiences in the fixation of vaginal prolapse using Fletcher's method].
abstract: The advantages of Fletcher's operation for vaginal pouch prolapse after previous hysterectomy or total extirpation are reported with a slightly modified method in eight cases. The following results show this surgical procedure to be especially advantageous: A permanent good fixation of vagina without shortening, no recurrence no pain and neither so-called antefixation complaints. A complete rehabilitation of cohabitation and orgasm was effected. Urological complications, such as obstruction of urine or micturition difficulties are eliminated by this surgical intervention.
