Sacrocolpopexy is a procedure that uses soft synthetic mesh to support pelvic organs that have slipped out of their normal positions.(This condition is called pelvic organ prolapse .) The mesh is initially held in place by friction from strap-like arms of mesh material woven through the pelvis.lthough complications associated with sacrocolpopexy are unlikely, they can include difficulty urinating and possible injury to blood vessels, nerves, bladder and bowel. There is also a small risk of the mesh material becoming exposed in the vaginal canal. These conditions can be repaired with surgery.
