SUMMARY The Endo Stitch technique has been in use in Geelong since 1994 as the method of performing transvaginal sacrospinous colpopexy (TSC). This article looks at the outcome of 165 of these procedures as assessed by a questionnaire. As the operation is technically easy, has a low complication rate and a high level of patient satisfaction we suggest that the Endo Stitch technique may be the method of choice for TSC.
