On behalf of Shengavit Medical Center, the Maternity Hospital of Gyumri, the patients and me, we thank you for your very generous donation of 10 Caldera Medical Desara slings for our medical mission.
We spent ten days in Yerevan and Gyumri, consulting, treating, and performing various types of gynecologic surgeries, pelvic organ prolapses repairs, and vaginal vault fixation to the sacrospinous ligament with apical mesh, and placements of slings. The surgeries were successful. We had no complications except for a post-surgical mild urine retention.
