The only info I have is written on the pre-operative screening program envelope from Joseph Brant Memorial Hospital in Burlington Ontario Canada. 'Anterior and Posterior Repair possible. Miya Hook Coloposuspension.' I am 84 years old with a pacemaker and have chronic atrial fibulation. There is not much help here for my present problem.

Dear Betty

Transvaginal Sacrospinous Ligament Fixation with Miya Hook is a very good technique which need Mmnimal Dissection of the Pararectal Space Featuring the Suture Capturing Device. Although the development of the MIYA HOOK ligature carrier reduced the level of dissection required for transvaginal sacrospinous ligament fixation, significant dissection and retraction is necessary. A less invasive alternative would combine the advantages of a transvaginal approach with a reduced need for dissection and retraction.

Sacrospinous ligament fixation is intended to correct pelvic prolapse by gynecologist for decades that results from inadequate support of the vaginal apex. Normal vaginal wall support - which maintains both proper uterine and vaginal vault position - may be compromised by damage occurring at childbirth. Repeated stress on the cardinal/uterosacral ligament caused by chronic coughing disorders or repetitive heavy lifting may also weaken support and result in prolapse. Other etiologies of the condition include connective tissue abnormalities, iatrogenic pudendal neuropathy, or anatomic distortion from pelvic reconstructive procedures.

As far as your surgery is considered your pre anaesthetist checkup has to to be done to see the you can tolerate surgery or not. For this purpose we will recommend you to contact a good Gynecologist and get a thorough investigation done.

With regard

J S Chowhan.
