Coloplast LSC Trial Summary

This trial will compare two types of minimally invasive surgery for uterine prolapse, one with hysterectomy and one without. They will compare surgical time, intraoperative complications, postoperative mesh complications, and prolapse recurrence.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women aged 18 or older who need surgery (laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy) for uterovaginal prolapse and want a hysterectomy at the same time. They must have a recent normal PAP smear. Women can't join if they've had previous apical prolapse surgery, can't consent, need unrelated surgeries, wish to keep their uterus, don't understand English, or have health issues preventing laparoscopy.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares surgical times between two types of hysterectomy during minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy: vaginal hysterectomy versus laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy. It also looks at differences in intraoperative complications and postoperative issues like mesh-related problems and recurrence of prolapse.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include typical risks associated with surgical procedures such as infection, bleeding, pain at the incision site, anesthesia reactions, and specific complications related to each type of hysterectomy which will be monitored.
