About this study

Official title: Comparison Between Abdominal Sacral Hysteropexy and Vaginal Sacrospinous Hysteropexy for Management of Women With Apical Uterine Descent : a Randomized Clinical Trial

The aim of the current study is to compare abdominal sacral cervicopexy with vaginal sacrospinous cervicopexy in women with apical prolapse in terms of operative time, procedures safety and efficacy.

Read the detailed description

According to Cochrane group trials , abdominal approaches centered on sacral colpopexy is associated with lower risk of awareness of prolapse, repeat surgery for prolapse and dyspareunia than a variety of vaginal interventions. However, these trials weren't statistically significant and have focused on the effects in terms of anatomy and lacked the effect on functional outcomes, the quality of life, perioperative complications and the operative duration.

In this study, We hypothesize that prolonged operative duration will be associated with a greater risk of developing complications and so may guide us to a minimally invasive approach with better functional outcomes.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • HysteropexyProcedure or surgery

    Abdominal Sacral cervicopexy:

    The approach involves suspending the cervix to the anterior longitudinal ligament on the sacrum using permanent sutures or polypropylene mesh.

    Vaginal Sacrospinous cervicopexy:

    This transvaginal extraperitoneal technique involves suspending the sacrospinous ligament to the cervix using either a dissolvable or permanent suture. The suspension is performed in a unilateral fashion.

Receives: Procedure: Hysteropexy

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Operative time

    Operative time will be recorded starting from skin incision.

    Measured: intraoperative

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. a_clinical effectiveness assessed by the pelvic organ prolapse quantification system (POP_Q).

    The patients will be followed for recurrence of the symptoms and the degree of descent.

    Measured: From 6 months to 1 year follow up

  2. b_Number of participants with treatment_related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0

    It will be used to assess the safety and tolerability to the procedure.

    Measured: From 6 months to 1 year follow up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Hysteropexy in people with Pelvic Organ Prolapse, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
