About this trial

This study aims to compare the surgical outcomes, safety profiles, and patient satisfaction between two minimally invasive techniques for pelvic organ prolapse repair: Vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (V-NOTES) mesh-free sacrocolpopexy and laparoscopic mesh-free sacrocolpopexy. By evaluating perioperative data, complication rates, anatomical and functional outcomes, this trial seeks to determine whether the V-NOTES approach provides comparable or superior results to the traditional laparoscopic technique, without the use of synthetic mesh.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Change in Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q) stage from baseline to 6 months

Anatomical success will be evaluated using the POP-Q system. A reduction of prolapse stage by at least one level or achieving stage 0-1 will be considered successful.

Time frame
Baseline and 6 months postoperative
2

Change in PISQ-12 Score

Sexual function will be evaluated with PISQ-12. An increase in score indicates improvement.

Time frame
Baseline and 6 months postoperative
3

Change in Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory-20 (PFDI-20) Score

Patient-reported symptoms related to pelvic floor distress will be evaluated using the PFDI-20. A decrease in score indicates improvement in symptoms.

Time frame
Baseline and 6 months postoperative
