Brief Summary

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is considered one of the commonest gynecologic health problems all over the world. Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is common and can be seen in up to 50% or more of parous women. The annual aggregated rate of associated surgery for pelvic organ prolapse is in the range of 10-30 per 10,000 women. It is estimated that women have an 11-19% life-time risk of undergoing surgery for POP. This rate is projected to increase over the next 2-3 decades. Apical POP refers any descent of the cervix or the vaginal cuff scar(as after hysterectomy) below a point which is 2 cm less than the total vaginal length about the plane of the hymen. Apical POP is due to defect in apical support with damage to the cardinal and uterosacral ligaments. Apical pelvic organ prolapse is a common issue in our country with significant incidence rate due to many predisposing factors including increasing age, higher gravidity and parity (especially the number of vaginal births)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • rate of occurance of denovo stress urinary incontinence

    number of patients developed new onset postoperative stress urinary incontinence

    18 months

  • The rate of Improvement of urinary symptoms

    Improvement of symptoms using Abramsc Development and psychometric evaluation of the International consultation on incontinence and Vaginal Symptoms Questionnaire maximum score:178, minimum score:0 high score means better outcome , low score means worse outcome

    18 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • objective assessment of prolapse stage

    18 months

  • assessment of sexual function

    18 months

Study Arms (2)

lateral suspension

EXPERIMENTAL

All operations will be performed with patient in loyd davies position, sterilization of the perineum then sterilization of the vagina

Procedure: lateral suspension

sacropexy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Our first passage is the peritoneum incision overlying the sacral promontory (L5-S1) to expose the anterior longitudinal ligament, which is the anchorage point of the mesh on the sacrum. We create a tunnel under the peritoneum on the right side through the cul-de-sac of Douglas till reach the cervix or vaginal cuff (after hysterectomy).

Procedure: sacropexy

Interventions

• The vesico-vaginal space was found between the bladder and the anterior vaginal wall in the fascia plane. A polypropylene mesh (25 , 25 cm, Ethicon, Inc., Somerville, NJ) was cut to obtain two long arms (15-20 mm wide) and a rectangular piece (4-7 cm wide).

lateral suspension
sacropexyPROCEDURE

• The mesh is fixed on the anterior longitudinal ligament of sacrum with separated number 1 prolene sutures. The other end of the mesh is passed through the peritoneal tunnel and fixed to the cervix using prolene 1 and vicryl o sutures.
