NCT ID NCT06982157

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compares two surgical techniques for pelvic organ prolapse that keep the uterus in place: vaginal sacrospinous ligament fixation and laparoscopic uterosacral ligament suspension. Researchers followed 111 women for up to two years after surgery, checking both symptoms and physical exam results. The goal is to find out which method works better and for whom, so doctors can offer more personalized care.
