Over a period of three years (January 1987 to December 1990), 78 cases of conservative surgery for pelvic relaxation, either at our hospital or in some other hospitals, were studied. All of these patients were admitted in active labor or as cases of abortions. The complex nature of the problem of pelvic relaxation or genital prolapse is evident from the fact that we have encountered as many as six conservative operations in our series. The reproductive performance of a patient along with the time taken for the conception to occur after the surgery are emphasized in our study.
