Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the vaginal sacrospinous colpopexy and high uterosacral colpopexy in the treatment of genital prolapse grade III/IV in women with uterus.

Detailed description

Hysterectomy is often the traditional approach for women with uterovaginal prolapse. However, hysterectomy alone does not address the underlying problem of deficient apical support. Surgical options for patients with apical prolapse include transvaginal suspension procedures using pelvic structures for fixation, such as the sacrospinous ligament or uterosacral ligaments.The objective of this study is to compare the sacrospinous fixation with high uterosacral in the treatment of uterine prolapse POP-Q stage 3 or 4 in terms of recurrence of prolapse,quality of life,complications,post-operative recovery, hospital stay.

PROCEDUREsacrospinous colpopexy versus high uterosacral colpopexyWomen with uterine prolapse grade III or IV were randomly allocated to the sacrospinous colpopexy or high uterosacral colpopexy with vaginal hysterectomy.Before the surgery P-Qol questionnaire were completed and urogynecological examination include de POP-Q system was done.
