An anterior implant adapted to treat central and lateral cystoceles
present in a female patient includes laterally extending stabilizing
straps for supporting the implant between the patient's bladder and
vagina independently of the patient's arcus tendineous fascia pelvis.
Rectocele and hysterocele repairs can be carried out using a single
posterior implant which, like the anterior implant, is provided with
laterally extending stabilizing straps for supporting the implant between
the patient's rectum and vagina.
