Abstract

Objective: The research objective is to present and evaluate 3 years of experience in sacrospinal fixation using polypropylene mesh in the surgical treatment of genital prolapse in women. Methods: This retrospective study evaluated perioperative and mid-term outcomes in 68 women who underwent transvaginal sacroscopic cervicocolpopexy with lightweight polypropylene mesh for stage II-IV prolapse with apical involvement. Anatomical outcomes, complications, and symptoms were assessed using POP-Q staging and validated questionnaires preoperatively and at 12 and 36 months postoperatively. Results: No intraoperative complications were observed. In the long-term postoperative period, the following were observed: vaginal wall erosion in transvaginal Mesh-systems placement along the postoperative suture line at 2.9 % (2/68), and chronic pelvic pain at 2.9 % (2/68). The percentage of anatomical success in restoring the position of the apical vaginal segment was 98.5 % (67/68) 12 months after surgery and remained unchanged after 36 months of follow-up.
