There are very many types of operation for the correction of symptomatic pelvic floor relaxation, and the pelvic surgeon is faced with a difficult task when selecting the most appropriate procedure(s) for an individual patient. Currently, the lifetime risk of undergoing prolapse or continence surgery in France is one in 11; up to 30% of patients will require repeat prolapse surgery, and 10% will require repeat continence surgery. Reconstructive pelvic surgery for the treatment of vaginal prolapse continues to evolve as surgeons continue their quest for a definitive surgical cure. This review looks at the etiology, presentation and current surgical management of genital prolapse in females.
