Purpose: This comparative cohort study evaluated the influence of surgical route for prolapse hysterectomy (vaginal or laparoscopically assisted) on the achievement of intended elective salpingo-oophorectomy, which was a procedural goal planned with the patient before primary vaginal native-tissue prolapse surgery.
Methods: Consecutive patients who underwent total vaginal hysterectomy (TVH; n = 163) or laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH; n = 144) and vaginal native-tissue repair for pelvic organ prolapse at Jena University Hospital were enrolled.
Results: Peri- and postoperative parameters, including Clavien-Dindo (CD) classification of surgical complications, were compared between groups using Student's t test, Fisher's exact test, and multivariable regression. Patient characteristics were similar, except that grade IV prolapse was more common in the LAVH group (p < 0.001). The following parameters differed between the TVH and LAVH groups: concomitant salpingectomy (1.2% vs. 34%) and salpingo-oophorectomy (45% vs. 66%), non-performance of intended salpingo-oophorectomy (36% vs. 0% OR 0.006, 95% CI < 0.001-0.083), adhesiolysis (0% vs. 44%), CD II-III complications (51% vs. 14.6% p < 0.001), operating time (153 ± 61 vs. 142 ± 27 min), and postoperative in-patient days (9.02 ± 4.9 vs. 4.99 ± 0.96; all p < 0.001).
Conclusions: LAVH enabled the safe performance of planned concomitant salpingo-oophorectomy in all cases. To achieve the procedural goal in such cases, laparoscopic assistance in prolapse hysterectomy should be considered.

Importance: Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is common after reconstructive pelvic surgery. Little is known about the relationship between older age (≥70 years) and POUR after pelvic organ prolapse surgery.
Objectives: We aimed to investigate the relationship between age ≥70 years and POUR.

Importance: Women aged 90 years and older ("oldest-old") represent a small but growing population who may experience bothersome pelvic organ prolapse and opt for surgical repair.
Objective: This study aimed to compare perioperative adverse events (AEs) within 8 weeks of prolapse surgery between women ≥90 years and younger patients.
Study Design: We performed a secondary analysis of a dual-center retrospective cohort study of women ≥61 years old undergoing major prolapse surgery from January 2016 to May 2023.

Objective: This case report aims to present a rare occurrence of fallopian tube prolapse into the vaginal vault following hysterectomy, underscoring the importance of recognizing this uncommon complication.
Case Report: A 45-year-old woman, with a history of hysterectomy for adenomyosis, presented with symptoms mimicking a vaginal tumor, including persistent discharge, abdominal pain, postcoital bleeding, and weight loss. Imaging raised concerns of malignancy, but surgery revealed a prolapsed fallopian tube with chronic inflammation.

Introduction And Importance: Female urethral leiomyoma is a rare benign tumor that originates from the smooth muscle cells in the urethra's wall. Surgical resection is often the primary treatment option. However, the tumor's location and size can present challenges for complete removal while preserving urethral function.

Introduction: The rising prevalence of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) in the aging population underscores the need to reevaluate treatment options. This study examines obliterative procedures, specifically colpocleisis performed with (CH) and without (C) concomitant vaginal hysterectomy, as management strategies for frail, non-sexually active elderly patients with advanced prolapse.
Methods: This retrospective study analyzed data from patients who underwent either colpocleisis with concomitant vaginal hysterectomy (CH) or colpocleisis alone (C) at our institution between 2006 and 2020.
