1.          A {{low median incision, pfannestial incision}} about 8 cm in length was made and intraperitoneal cavity was exposed.

2.          A longitudinal incision was made through the peritoneum over the sacral promontory, and the incision was extended caudally for 5 to 6 cm below and posterior to the promontory.

3.          The midsacral artery and vein were identified and a clean area of periosteum over the promontory was able to access.

4.          A piece of {{Prolene mesh, Mersilene mesh}} was used to transfix the vaginal cuff with use of 1-0 Prolene.

5.          A {{longitudinal incision was made from promontory on the peritoneum across the posterolateral aspect of the right side of the cul-de-sac to the vaginal apex, subperitoneal tunnel that extends from the inferior edge of the incision cover the sacral promontory beneath the peritoneum across the posterolateral aspect of the right side of the cul-de-sac to the vaginal apex}}, the mesh was grasped with a Kelly clamp and drew to the promontory of the sacrum fixing on the periosteum of the promontory with stitches of 1-0 Prolene sutures.

6.          {{A, No}} drain was placed in the right pararectal space extraperitoneally.
