WS1 | Native tissue repair of POP: extreme boundaries and functional outcomes. 

Faculty: 

A. Padoa, M. Serati, M. Espuña-Pons, A. Braga

POP is a common condition that in many cases requires surgical repair. After numerous warnings against the use of vaginal mesh in POP surgery, native tissue procedures are the most commonly performed interventions for the treatment of POP. Indeed, certain surgical techniques which had been nearly abandoned in the last two decades, , are now considered suitable in selected cases. The purpose of this workshop is: 
- To present an in-depth discussion about safety and efficacy of controversial native tissue approaches.
- To present updated evidence on crucial functional outcomes of native tissue repair of POP.
