[2] [10] Forms of colpopexy include sacrocolpopexy, in which the vaginal vault is attached to the sacrum using a surgical mesh; sacrospinous ligament fixation, in which the upper vagina is attached to the sacrospinous ligaments; and uterosacral ligament vaginal vault suspension, in which the upper vagina is attached to the uterosacral ligaments ...
The uterosacral ligaments (or rectouterine ligaments [1]) are major ligaments of uterus that extend posterior-ward from the cervix to attach onto the (anterior aspect of the [2]) sacrum. [ 3 ] Structure
[8] [7] Cancer that has spread from the colon, bladder, and stomach is far more common than cancer that originates in the vagina itself. [9] Some benign tumors may later progress to become malignant tumors, such as vaginal cancers. [10] [11] Some neoplastic growths of the vagina are sufficiently rare as to be only described in case studies. [3]
Uterine prolapse is a common condition, but it’s sometimes missed by women and their doctors. Dr. Karyn Eilber, a urologist at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and co-founder of Glissant Intimate ...
Vulvar cancer can produce lumps that are red, pink or white, and may feel rough or thick to the touch, as a symptom, and vaginal cancer, while rare, can also cause a lump.
The vaginal support structures are those muscles, bones, ligaments, tendons, membranes and fascia, of the pelvic floor that maintain the position of the vagina within the pelvic cavity and allow the normal functioning of the vagina and other reproductive structures in the female.
The mesh is strongly attached at two points: namely the uterus/cervix and the anterior longitudinal ligament over the sacral promontory. Hysteropexy restores the normal support of the vagina, suspending the uterus back in its anatomical position by reinforcing weakened ligaments with a mesh. This procedure allows the length of the vagina to be ...
The contents of the broad ligament include the following: [3] Reproductive uterine tubes (or fallopian tube) ovary (some sources consider the ovary to be on the broad ligament, but not in it.)
