Posterior Culdeplasty

Abstract
The author describes a new technique for the cure of posterior vaginal enterocele. This operation is performed from below following vaginal hysterectomy, and takes place within the lower portion of the peritoneal cavity. It is a posterior culdeplasty whereby the relaxed cul-de-sac of Douglas is suspended and obliterated between the uterosacral ligaments without dissection of or excision of the hernial sac.
