Popis: Background: Post hysterectomy vault prolapse is a progressive herniation of the vaginal vault through the urogenital diaphragm and commonly leads to per vaginal bulge. Surgically, vault prolapse is corrected by sacrocolpopexy which can be done both as an open abdominal surgery and as a laparoscopic repair. Aims and Objectives: This study was performed to compare the therapeutic efficacies of laparoscopic and abdominal sacrocolpopexy. Materials and Methods: This study includes 50 cases of vault prolapsed who underwent hysterectomy previously, admitted in our institution and operated during January 2021–June 2022 for a period of 18 months with both open abdominal and laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy. We compared the basic characteristics, duration of surgery, post-operative stay, post-operative complications, and patient satisfaction between open and laparoscopic groups. Results: No significant difference was observed between the characteristics of the patients in the abdominal-approach group and the laparoscopic-approach group. The laparoscopic-approach group had a lower intraoperative estimated blood loss (187.8 vs. 90.3 mL, P
