Core Tip	While mesh-augmented prolapse repair would appear to improve anatomical outcomes, it does not consistently translate into improved patient satisfaction. The use of mesh implantation has to be balanced with the added morbidity of possible delayed mesh-associated complications over-time. We simply seek to recognize that there will be women who will suffer from adverse outcomes after these implants (just as there can be complications after any type of surgery); it is important to recognize the need and possible benefit of effective intervention, all the while continuing to challenge ourselves to improve the techniques and materials we use in pelvic reconstruction.
