Abstract
To evaluate the safety and the subjective and objective outcomes of bilateral minimal tension sacrospinous fixation for pelvic organ prolapse. This was a single-centre observational study conducted at the University Hospital, Urogynaecological Unit, with a certified urogynaecological surgeon. A cohort of 110 patients receiving modified bilateral sacrospinous fixation following a diagnosis of grade II-IV pelvic organ prolapse and defects of three pelvic compartments. Non-absorbable sutures were placed on each side of the sacrospinous ligament. The main aim was to achieve a minimal tension situation by intentionally leaving suture bridges on both sides of the suspension. The post-surgical follow-up period was 14±7 months. The three characteristics of cure in functional surgery - anatomy, function, and subjective patient's judgement - were evaluated in this study. Primary outcomes were anatomic, functional, and subjective cures, that were measured pre- and postoperatively using the POP-Q system values, a validated pelvic quality-of-life questionnaire (P-QoL/D), and interviews regarding expectations, goal-setting, goal achievement, and satisfaction. Secondary outcome measures included data on surgical complications. Data analysis w...Continue Reading
