Abstract
BACKGROUND: The problem of cervical elongation is becoming increasingly important due to the rising prevalence of pelvic organ prolapse. In Russia, descent and prolapse of pelvic organs account for 39% of all gynecological pathologies.
AIM: This study aimed to compare the immediate and long-term results of surgical treatment for cervical elongation in combination with vaginal wall prolapse in patients of three clinical groups.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 105 patients aged 30 to 55 years with a combination of cervical elongation and vaginal wall prolapse of degrees I–II were followed up. The patients were divided into three clinical groups based on the implemented surgical techniques, including group 1 (n=36) with Moscow surgery, group 2 (n=35) with modification of the Manchester surgery using synthetic implants, and group 3 (n=34) with Manchester surgery.
The patients underwent a comprehensive clinical examination, surgical treatment, and follow-up in the early and long-term postoperative periods (1, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months). The efficacy of surgical treatment was assessed using a questionnaire. During dynamic monitoring, a gynecological examination with a Valsalva maneuver, and transperineal, and transvaginal echography were performed.
RESULTS: During the first month after the surgery, patients noted irregular dragging pains in the perineum and/or inguinal region every second. A frequent urge to urinate was reported in 16.7%, 17.1%, and 17.6% of patients in groups 1, 2, and 3, respectively. A further survey revealed that the surgical treatment results were satisfactory, as it had a positive effect on the quality of life and mood and contributed to an increase in social and sexual activity. According to the physical examination, there were no signs of prolapse recurrence and mesh-associated complications. Erosion of the anterior vaginal wall over the polypropylene endoprosthesis was detected 6 months after the surgery in 3 (8.6%) patients of group 2.
Genital prolapse recurrence was diagnosed after 12–36 months in 7 (20.6%) patients of group 3. After 36 months, degree I prolapse of the posterior (n=1) and anterior (n=1) walls of the vagina was revealed in patients of groups 1 and 2, respectively.
