Patients suffering advance uterine prolapse presents with a variety of debilitating symptoms and significantly impaired quality of life. Proper understanding the herniation nature of the problem and precise pelvic floor anatomy details are essential for being able to design and perform a safe, curative and durable pelvic floor reconstruction.

All these makes the efficient reconstruction even more difficult; the following summary was written to shed light on this particular field.
