Prolapse of Vaginal Vault After Hysterectomy Clinical Trial
Official title:
Prophylactic Uterosacral Ligament Suspension at the Time of Hysterectomy for Prevention of Vaginal Vault Prolapse (PULS)
Is routine uterosacral ligament suspension an appropriate clinical adjunct at the time of
hysterectomy?
The answers to these questions will facilitate the treatment of many American women. With the
results of this study, the investigators would anticipate a reduction in the number of
surgeries for pelvic organ prolapse. In addition, if uterosacral ligament suspension was
shown to be ineffective, it would not be used routinely in the setting of hysterectomy and
women will be spared the additional procedure and possibility of side effects or
complications.
The relative risks and benefits of adding a prophylactic uterosacral ligament suspension at
the time of hysterectomy in women without symptomatic prolapse symptoms have never been
studied prospectively.
