A hysterectomy may also be performed for uterine prolapse, and for support of the vagina over the long-term. Cure rates are at about 90 per cent. The mesh supports the apex of the vagina at the front (anterior), which is the weakest part of the vaginal support system, plus supports the back of the vagina. The mesh means the vagina can only fall so far as the mesh allows. The bladder sits on the front (anterior) mesh, and the rectum is supported by the back (posterior) mesh.
