title: [Complications associated with the use of polypropylene mesh in women under colposacropexy].
abstract: BACKGROUND
  There have been numerous surgical procedures and modi fied in the hope of obtaining a lasting cure for pelvic organ prolapse These surgeries were performed using the traditionally native tissues of the patient. In an effort to reduce morbidity, improve surgical outcomes and reduce the complexity of these operations, we used a growing number of synthetic mesh repairs and biomaterials used tissue from cadaver or animal.
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  To evaluate the frequency of complications associated with the use of polypropylene mesh in women undergoing colposacropexy.
  
  
  METHODS
  Retrospective, observational and descriptive study conducted at the Hospitalde Ginecología y Obstetricia 3 IMSS (Mexico) between 1 January 2006 and 15 February 2013. The main risk factors associated with pelvic organ prolapse were considered, comorbidity and complications directly linked to the procedure.
  
  
  RESULTS
  With respect to the related complications colposacropexy procedure using polypropylene mesh were documented in 20 of 67 patients which corresponded to 30%.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  A number of complications have been associated with the use of meshes between these include: extrusion, erosion, pelvic pain, dyspareunia, bladder or bowel condition, but one aspect is poorly evaluated sexual dysfunction without to definitely plays an important role in the field bio-psychosocial.
