Abstract

Objective. To study the efficacy and safety of the original technique for surgical correction of cervical elongation with vaginal wall prolapse (stage I–II) in patients of reproductive and menopause age. Patients and methods. The study included 17 patients aged 30 to 56 years with cervical elongation and vaginal wall prolapse. All patients underwent the original surgery – cervical amputation along with combined transobturator and sacrospinous TiMeshligature cervical suspension. Results. The patients were observed 1, 6, 12 and 18 months after surgery. Comparison of the patients’ questionnaire data in the pre- and postoperative periods showed an improvement in their quality of life, an increase in their social and sexual activity. During the first month, 10 (58.8%) patients noted intermittent episodes of perineal pain and 3 (17%) – frequent urination. Comprehensive clinical examination after 6, 12, and 18 months revealed complete preservation of surgical correction of prolapse in all patients. Gynecological and rectal examinations, transperineal and transvaginal ultrasound revealed no displacement of pelvic organs and titanium implants. There were no mesh-associated complications during follow-up. Conclusion. The developed original technique for surgical correction of cervical elongation with vaginal wall prolapse (stage I–II) using a combination of titanium mesh implants and non-absorbable ligatures with two-lateral suture anchor was shown to be effective and safe, as evidenced by normalization of the uterus position in the pelvis and absence of pelvic organ displacement and mesh-associated complications during follow-up. Key words: cervical elongation, stage I–II vaginal wall prolapse, titanium mesh implants, mesh-ligature correction of prolapse
