Abstract

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common condition that significantly impairs a woman's quality of life. Currently a range of interventions from non-surgical to surgical options exist, all with their unique advantages and disadvantages. Among these, the EnPlace system stands out as a truly minimally invasive transvaginal percutaneous device designed to repair apical POP by bilaterally anchoring sutures to the sacrospinous ligaments. Readers will familiarize themselves with the EnPlace, relevant historical studies, and the technique for EnPlace transvaginal percutaneous sacrospinous ligament fixation for hysteropexy or colposuspension.
