Excerpt from The Immediate and Remote Results of Seventy-One Alexander and Seventy-One Suspensio-Uteri Operations

Although the Alexander operation was primarily intended for cases of retroversion without adhesions, its field has been amplified in my hands by perform ing it in conjunction with posterior colpotomy in cases of moderate adhesions. This was done in nine of my cases with good results. The colpotomy proved especially useful where the uterosacral liga ments were tight. Where the ovaries were pro lapsed and free from adhesions the Alexander Opera tion, in certain cases, has restored them to a normal position, but when adherent, or when the ovarian ligaments have been long, it has not done so in a majority of cases even with the aid of colpotomy.
