Objectives: We sought to compare the surgical outcomes, safety, effectiveness, and mid-term outcomes in patients who had undergone laparoscopic hysterosacropexy and laparoscopic pectopexy due to apical prolapse.
Materials And Methods: This prospective randomized study was conducted on a total of 62 women who underwent apical prolapse surgery (32 undergoing a pectopexy and 30 undergoing a sacrohysteropexy) between June 2015 and June 2017. Patients with symptomatic uterine or vaginal vault prolapse with stage 2 or worse were included in the sudy. Before and after the operation, we used the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification System (POP-Q) and questionnaires, which are the Prolapse Quality of Life Questionnaire (P-QOL) and Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), to evaluated cases. Baseline characteristics, perioperative and postoperative complications, and follow-up results at 12 months were also evaluated.
Results: All domains of POP-Q, P-QOL, and FSFI scores improved significantly after surgery both in pectopexy and sacrohysteropexy group. The postoperative complications of both procedures were similar except for constipation after surgery (3.2% in the pectopexy group and 20% in the hysterosacropexy group [ = 0.036]).
Conclusion: Both sacrohysteropexy and pectopexy are effective surgical options for apical prolapse patients. The pectopexy is an acceptable alternative to laparoscopic sacrohysteropexy because of its less complexity and not reducing pelvic space for the rectum to exist. We suggest that the laparoscopic pectopexy may be widely used in clinical routine.

Laparoscopic Non-Mesh Cerclage Pectopexy with Uterine Preservation for Pelvic Organ Prolapse.

Article Synopsis
- Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common issue affecting many women worldwide, and recent research highlights the effectiveness of laparoscopic pectopexy (LP) but points out its cost and complications due to synthetic mesh.
- A new procedure called laparoscopic non-mesh cerclage pectopexy with uterine preservation (LNMCPUP) has been developed, allowing for successful uterine suspension without using mesh, resulting in high success rates and minimal complications.
- This technique not only avoids the risks associated with synthetic mesh but also offers a solution for women who want to keep their uterus during surgery, making it a viable option especially in areas where mesh is not accessible.
Evaluation of the effectiveness of laparoscopic pectopexy in advanced stage apical prolapse.

Objective: We aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the laparoscopic pectopexy procedure in women who want to preserve their uterus for stage III or IV apical prolapse.
Study Design: 132 women who underwent laparoscopic pectopexy due to stage III or IV apical pelvic organ prolapse (POP) were included in this study. Demographic data of the patients, duration of surgery, blood loss, hospitalisation, intraoperative and postoperative complications, recurrence rate were searched from the hospital file archive.

A Novel Sliding Knot Technique Without a Knot Pusher for Laparoscopic Pelvic Floor Surgery.

Introduction And Hypothesis: Challenges in intracorporeal knot tying can be addressed with extracorporeal slip knots, simplifying the process of tying and managing tissue tension using a knot pusher. However, existing extracorporeal knot techniques are difficult owing to their complexity, the finesse required with thin yarns, and extensive training needs. We developed a new laparoscopic extracorporeal slip knot technique that can be used with a conventional needle driver or standard clamps, offering the advantages of being cost-effective and easy to learn.

Background: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a public health problem that influences millions of women around the globe, and it has a significant impact on the quality of life. From the FDA statement regarding the complications of using mesh implants in POP surgery to studies that have shown the benefits and side effects, we conducted a systematic review investigating the complications associated with surgical mesh implantation for POP repair.
Methods: Relevant studies were identified through a comprehensive search of scientific databases.
