Principles of POPSTARR The pelvic floor reconstruction is prosthesis based (mesh). The sling of mesh aims at Repositioning the sagging viscera by lifting it up cranially and towards anterior abdominal wall. The sling is anchored anteriorly and not posteriorly, hence avoiding any neurogenic & other sequelae of sacral fixation. The uterosacral ligaments are used as pulley for middle compartment The anterior cervix is used as pulley for anterior compartment The V-shaped sling is completely extra-peritoneal Brij B Agarwal, SELSICON, August 8, 2015, Cochin
