Vaginal and Uterine Support (side view) - Note the upper pubocervical fascia supports the bladder and urethra, the lower rectovaginal fascia supports the rectum. Specifically the rectovaginal fascia keeps the rectum from protruding into the vagina. Both of the pubocervical and rectovaginal fascia attach to the uterus which in turn attaches to the uterosacral ligaments. There is a continuous supportive structure (fascia) from the opening of the vagina to the uterosacral ligaments. |
