[Pelvic promontory fixation of the vaginal stump in cases of prolapse (author's transl)].
The choice of operative technique in cases of prolapse of the vagina following hysterectomy is difficult in women still having intercourse. Amreich's original procedure of sacrospinal fixation of the vagina, recently recommended by Richter, is difficult and dangerous. Hence, the relatively easy procedure of pelvic promontory fixation of the vaginal stump described many years ago by G.A. Wagner was performed on 5 women with excellent results. A description is given of the operative technique.
