title: [The use of synthetic mesh implants in surgical treatment of pelvic organ prolapse].
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgical treatment went through major changes thanks to availability and wider expansion of mesh implants (MI). This work is focused on critical analysis of outcomes of these surgical procedures and recommendation prescription for their uses in application pelvic surgery.
  
  
  METHODS
  There was made analysis of published outcomes and experience with MI use in POP surgical treatment. OUTCOMES were analysed separately for each pelvic bottom section. Main criteria were surgical complications and treatment effectivity based on objective measurable parameters and subjective patients evaluation.
  
  
  RESULTS
  There are formalized suitable indications and conditions for individual pelvic bottom sections for safe MI use in reconstructive POP surgery. On the basis of objective data authors also define specific situations when MI use doesn't bring any benefit and it is not recommended.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Mesh implants have their definite place in POP surgical treatment. Implants with right indication and right surgical technique in comparison with classic surgical procedures have significantly lower recurrence risk with comparable or higher surgical complication rate.
