Uterine prolapse stands as the third leading cause of benign hysterectomy, with approximately 70,000 procedures being performed annually in the United States alone. It has long been acknowledged that the uterus is a passive bystander to the prolapse process. As more information is being accumulated surgeons are offering more uterine-preserving procedures to their patients.
Omar Duenas Garcia, MD and his team from the West Virginia University, USA are initiating a comprehensive study to discern the contemporary practices regarding the preservation of the uterus during apical prolapse surgical interventions or the preference for hysterectomy.
We invite your invaluable participation in this pivotal study aiming to unravel the most recent practices, delve into secondary outcomes, discern preferred sutures and approaches, as well as explore concerns associated with the choice of hysterectomy during prolapse repair.
