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)

Conditions

  • Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Interventions

PROCEDURE

lateral suspension

• 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).

PROCEDURE

sacropexy

• 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.
