Popis: The objective of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of the Elevate Apical and Posterior single-incision mesh system (SIMS) with IntePro Lite for pelvic organ prolapse repair. This prospective multicenter study included 139 women with a parts per thousand yen stage II posterior vaginal prolapse and/or apical descent who underwent placement of type I polypropylene mesh through a single transvaginal incision with no external needle passes. Primary endpoint was the percent of patients with posterior and/or apical stage a parts per thousand currency sign I ("cure") at follow-up. Secondary endpoints included, but were not limited to, rate of mesh extrusion and disease-specific quality of life outcomes. At 12 months, objective posterior wall and apical cure rates were 92.5 and 89.2 %, respectively, with an extrusion rate of 6.5 %. The SIMS appears to be effective and safe in treating patients with posterior vaginal and/or apical prolapse. The risks and benefits of transvaginal synthetic mesh insertion should be considered
