title: [Fixation of the vagina and neovagina with the sacrospinal ligament].
abstract: In order to fix the prolapse of vaginal vault after vaginal or abdominal hysterectomy we use the technique of transvaginal sacrospinous colpopexy. The authors used this technique for the firs time when they have made neovagina at male transsexual. The technique is as follows: after making the tunnel between the bladder and recrum, under the control of the left hand fingers the vagina, or neovagina is fixed to sacrospinous ligament. No complications or recidive followed the operation ever. The authors point out that the skillfull surgeon should know very well the anatomy of both male or female pelvis in order to perform this operation.
