Restorelle® Mesh Versus Native Tissue Repair for Prolapse

The purpose of this study is to collect information on the safety and effectiveness of Restorelle Direct Fix mesh and the surgical procedure to implant Restorelle. These results will be compared to the safety and effectiveness results in patients who have native tissue repair (without mesh) as their pelvic organ prolapse treatment.

Stanford is currently accepting patients for this trial.
