Popis: | The most appropriate method for repairing posterior vaginal wall prolapse is still debatable. Women with symptomatic prolapse scheduled to undergo surgical repair in the posterior compartment were randomised to standard posterior colporrhaphy (SPC) or fascial and vaginal epithelial plication (FEP). Participants were assessed with the Prolapse Quality of Life (P-QOL) questionnaire, pelvic organ prolapse quantification (POP-Q) examination and three-dimensional ultrasound (3D US) prior to surgery and 6 months postoperatively. The research hypothesis is that 3D US of the pelvic floor is a reliable tool in comparing the anatomical outcomes of the two different surgical techniques. Differences in anatomical outcomes, assessed clinically and by ultrasonographic evaluation, were compared between the two groups using the Independent Mann-Whitney |
