ABSTRACT

Introduction: vaginal vault prolapse continues to be a difficult though well defined problem in reconstructive pelvic surgery. Minimally invasive and safe options are increasingly considered for its solution.
Objective: characterize a group of patients with vaginal vault prolapse treated by surgery.
Methods: a retrospective descriptive study was conducted of the medical records of 70 patients diagnosed with this condition at the Gynecology Service of "Ramón González Coro" Hospital from June 2003 to December 2012. Data about clinical, surgical and evolution variables were obtained from surveys, the patients' medical records and the hospital's surgery registry.
Results: results are encouraging due to the small number of recurrences. The procedure is a successful, safe alternative applicable in our environment as long as individualized criteria are abided by.
Conclusions: surgical correction of vaginal vault prolapse is an effective procedure endorsed by the high level of satisfaction among healed or alleviated patients. We therefore recommend the inclusion of such techniques, whose increasingly common use requires the training of the personnel who will perform them.
