Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Native tissue repair for pelvic organ prolapse shows comparable success rates for apical prolapse treatments. Transvaginal rectocele repair is superior to transanal repair for posterior prolapse.

Area of Science:

  • Urogynecology
  • Pelvic Floor Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) affects many women.
  • Native tissue repair avoids mesh complications.
  • Compartment-specific data on nonmesh POP repair is needed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review success rates and complications of native tissue vaginal reconstruction for POP by compartment.
  • To compare different surgical techniques within each compartment.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of nonmesh vaginal reconstruction techniques for POP.
  • Analysis of outcomes by prolapse compartment: apical, anterior, and posterior.
  • Comparison of specific surgical procedures within each compartment.

Main Results:

  • Uterosacral ligament suspension and sacrospinous ligament fixation are effective for apical prolapse with similar outcomes.
  • Traditional colporrhaphy and ultralateral suturing show comparable results for anterior prolapse.
  • Transvaginal rectocele repair is superior to transanal repair for posterior prolapse.
  • Sacrospinous hysteropexy is non-inferior to vaginal hysterectomy with uterosacral ligament suspension for apical uterovaginal prolapse with uterine preservation.

Conclusions:

  • Native tissue repair offers effective solutions for pelvic organ prolapse across compartments.
  • Specific techniques demonstrate varying degrees of superiority based on the affected compartment.
  • Nonmesh repairs provide favorable anatomical and functional outcomes with low complication rates.
