First seen May 05, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study compares two vaginal surgery methods for pelvic organ prolapse (when organs like the bladder or uterus drop into the vagina). One method uses synthetic mesh, the other uses sutures. 358 women will be randomly assigned to one of the two surgeries and followed for 2 years to see which provides better long-term results. Neither the patients nor the evaluators will know which technique was used.
