Moschcowitz/Moskowitz culdoplasty
Find references for AV Moschcowitz of Mt. Sinai pioneering rectal and femoral hernia procedures and Mark Moskowitz pioneering mesh inguinal hernia repair, but does anyone know for certain who the culdoplasty is named for?  Find it spelled every possible way on Google and in reference books, but no reference actually pinning down identity of inventor.
Where is the evidence linking him to culdoplasty?
Thanks, I know about the Mt. Sinai link and Alexis Moschcowitz. But his only publications were about femoral hernias, rectal prolapse, and thoracoplasty. Where is evidence firmly linking him, or anyone for that matter, to the culdoplasty?
