NEW Minimally Invasive Treatment

Dr. Paul Littman of Skylands Urology Group in Hackettstown and Sparta is the first urogynecologist in Warren and Sussex counties to offer women the new Elevate minimally invasive prolapse repair system, which helps restore anatomy to its normal position with just a single-incision.
Prolapse is a condition which affects over 34 million women worldwide. It occurs when muscles and ligaments have been weakened or damaged due to childbirth, previous surgery, hysterectomy, obesity, age, ethnicity, genetics, or repetitive straining. This may cause pelvic structures such as the bladder or rectum to protrude or herniate into the vaginal wall. As a result, women may feel a bulge or sense of heaviness or the sensation that something has fallen in the pelvic area. Elevate allows for a minimally invasive and comprehensive solution to treat these defects. MORE >
