Laparoscopic uterine lateral suspensionTransvaginal sacrospinous fixation

Laparoscopic uterine lateral suspension: Laparoscopic uterine lateral suspension done with four trocar sites. Fix a 1.5cm\*32cm mesh to uterus at anterior lower segment and bilateral round ligaments by non-absorbable sutures (Surgilon 2-0, Ethicon, Norderstedt, Germany), and to lateral abdominal fascia by non-absorbable sutures (Prolene 1-0, Ethicon, Norderstedt, Germany). Reperitonization done to avoid mesh exposure in peritoneal cavity. Concomitant anterior and posterior colporrhaphy may be performed.

Transvaginal sacrospinous fixation: Transvaginal sacrospinous fixation done by hand suturing uterus to right sacrospinous ligament with non-absorbable suture (Prolene 1-0, Ethicon, Norderstedt, Germany). Concomitant anterior and posterior colporrhaphy may be performed.

Study summary

Transvaginal or transabdominal surgeries are current choices of uterus-preserving surgeries for pelvic organ prolapse.

Laparoscopic lateral uterine suspension, a modified surgical approach of uterine suspension from bilateral abdominal wall fascia, performed with expected safety and simplicity of surgery besides advantages including small wound incision and fast recovery in laparoscopic surgeries. This trial aim to discuss the therapeutic efficacy, long term safety, and adverse events of laparoscopic lateral uterine suspension and compare with the conventional transvaginal sacrospinous ligament fixation with native tissue repair.
