Abstract
A system for treating pelvic organ prolapse includes a plug, a skirt, and an anchor. The plug includes a base opposite an apex with the base wider than the apex. An exterior surface of the apex is shaped to conform to an interior apical portion of a vagina. The skirt is attachable to the plug and includes multiple pores that are sized to allow tissue of the interior apical portion of the vagina to grow through the skirt. The anchor has a proximal portion that is insertable through the vagina and the skirt for attachment to the apex of the plug. The anchor has a length that allows a distal portion of the anchor to be attached to a sacrum of a patient.
