Anterior-Apical Single-Incision Mesh Surgery (SIMS): Surgical and Functional Outcomes at 1 Year

Single-incision mesh surgery for treatment of advanced POP results in improvement in anatomical and quality-of-life outcomes.

Ultrasound evaluation demonstrated an increase in mesh length and thickness over time, with concurrent calculated lengthening of the C point and total vaginal length.
