Abstract
We report our experience with Richter spinofixation in association wit h Bologna cervicocystopexia. Eighteen patients underwent surgery for v oluminus prolapsus. Spinofixation did not lead to complications. This technique allows a vaginal approach in cases where only an abdominal o peration was possible before. Incontinence results were similar to tho se with the Bologna procedure alone with the additional improvement of allowing a permeable vagina. Currently mean follow-up is 13 months, b ut these encouraging results suggest that this association should be c ontinued in the future.
