OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to compare the use of unilateral apical sling versus laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy in the treatment of the apical form of pelvic organ prolapse in women. M: aterial and methods:A prospective, single-center randomized trial included 100 patients who were alternately assigned to treatment. Each patient had a ≥ III stage of apical or anterior-apical prolapse determined by the POP-Q system. 45 accepted for unilateral apical sling (UAS)and 55 accepted for laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (LS). Data were compared by the One-way ANOVA test using IBM SPSS stats 19. RESULTS: Mean operating time was significantly greater in the LS group versus UAS group, 194.6 vs 42.4 minutes, respectively (p < 0.05). The amount of intraoperative bleeding was significantly higher in the UAS group, compared to the LS group (p = 0.01). Within the follow-up period, 2 patients in UAS group and 3 patients in LS group (4.4% vs 5.4%, respectively; p = 0.9) had recurrent cystocoele. HRQoL and sexual outcomes did not differ significantly between the two treatment groups. CONCLUSION: s:Our data demonstrate the non-superiority one on each other of the two different approaches, except in terms of shorter operating time and higher intraoperative bleeding when UAS used. These findings raise questions about the need for long-term results of quality of life outcomes for women with genital prolapse, especially in resource-limited settings similar to Kazakhstan.
