Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Pelvic Organ prolapse (a feeling of bulge in the vagina) may cause some distressing symptoms such as loss of control of the bowel or bladder, and may also cause problems with patient's sex life. The primary treatment is surgery. Sacral Colpopexy is the gold standard procedure. Now it could be done laparoscopically. Modified total pelvic floor reconstructive surgery with mesh is developed in China for Asian Women.

This study is designed to determine the effectiveness and safety of Modified total pelvic floor reconstructive surgery with mesh compared with laparoscopic Sacral Colpopexy for the treatment of uterine or vault prolapse Stage III-IV.

Patients enrolled into the study will be followed up for up to 3 years after surgery. Evaluation will take place during surgery and postoperative visit. Stage of prolapse before and after surgery, patient satisfaction through quality of life and sexual function questionnaires before and after surgery, and peri-operative complication rates will be evaluated.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Pelvic organ prolapse is a common problem. The high rate of failure has led to an increasing use of synthetic grafts to augment vaginal repair procedures to obtain more durable results. In 2005, the investigators began to perform modified pelvic floor reconstruction surgery with mesh. The nation-wide multicenter prospective clinical trial data showed that it was safe, efficient and cost-effective. No severe intraoperative complications were recorded and the recurrence rate after 1 year follow-up was 8.1%. Quality of life improved significantly from the baseline, while the sexual function did not change.

Sacral colpopexy has long been regarded as the gold standard. Laparoscopic sacral colpopexy could offer durable result and low morbidity compared with open procedure.

In clinical practice, many women have symptomatic POP-Q Stage III-IV uterine or vault prolapse, which requires surgical correction. The aim of this multicenter, prospective and randomized study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of these two procedures in the treatment of symptomatic apical prolapse Stage III-IV in China.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Candidates with symptomatic uterine or vault prolapse of Stage III-IV, suitable for surgical repair.
* Age from 55-65 years old.
* Agrees to participate in the study, including completion of all study-related procedures, evaluations and questionnaires.

Exclusion Criteria

* Patients who could not tolerate laparoscopic surgery.
* Previous repair of pelvic organ prolapse involving insertion of mesh.
* Experimental drug or experimental medical device within 3 months prior to the planned procedure.

* Nursing or pregnant or intends future pregnancy.
* Chronic cough not well-controlled.
* BMI ≥ 30.
* In the investigator's opinion, any medical condition or psychiatric illness that could potentially be life threatening or affect their ability to complete the study visits according to this protocol.
