Filter by:This is a randomised study in which we compare the effectiveness of three different procedures in mending symptomatic anterior and apical prolapse in patients who are candidates to receive surgery. They will be randomly assigned in a ratio 1:1:1 to three different groups who will have assigned three different kinds of surgery. In the patients of the first group a classic vaginal hysterectomy with anterior colporrhaphy will be practised. Patients who belong to group two will undergo a vaginal hysterectomy followed by placement of an acellular dermal matrix from cadaveric donors (hADM) for anterior reinforcement and sacrospinous fixation with Anchorsure® device (Neomedic trade mark (TM) International, Spain). Finally, patients from group three will have vaginal hysterectomy followed by sacrospinous fixation with Anchorsure® alone . Patients will be followed-up at 4 weeks, 6 months, 12 months and annually till 36 months to evaluate relapses and possible complications.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the use of a laxative before surgery in women having surgery to fix pelvic prolapse that do not have constipation. The main question it aims to answer is: Does use of a laxative before surgery lessen the discomfort of bowel movements after surgery? Participants will be asked to complete questionnaires before and after surgery. Researchers will compare using the laxative before and after surgery versus only after surgery to see if there is less discomfort with bowel movements after surgery.
