Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Prolift pelvic reconstructive surgery for advanced pelvic organ prolapse in elderly patients,and to investigate its impact on pelvic floor function and sexual function.Methods Totally 42 patients aged 60-79 years with advanced pelvic organ prolapse [Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q) stage Ⅲ,n=30; POP-Q Ⅳ,n=12)were selected in this study.All patients underwent total Prolift procedure,and were followed up at month 1 and 6 after operation.Operation time,bleeding volume and postoperative complications were recorded.The impact of total Prolift procedure on pelvic floor function in patients were assessed by pelvic floor distress inventory short form 20 (PFDI-20),the pelvic floor incontinence questionnaire 7 (PFIQ-7) and the pelvic organ prolapsed and incontinence sexual quality questionnaire 31 (PISQ-31).Results The operative time was (35-78) minutes[mean time:(42±25) minutes].Bleeding volume was (50 300) ml [mean volume:(137±58) ml].No bladder injury,rectum injury and postoperative complications were observed.All patients were cured,and no one recurred.The scores of PFDI-20 and PFIQ-7 were decreased in patients after sugery at 1 and 6-month follow-up as compared with beforesugery (4.5±1.4,0 vs.47.9±12.2; 7.8±4.3,0 vs.76.3±17.9,respectively,all P＜0.01).There were no significant differences in scores of PFIQ-7 between before and after sugery at 1-and 6-months follow-up (52.3±4.3 vs.49.8±6.3,51.1±6.5,P＞0.05).Conclusions Prolift pelvic reconstructive surgery is an safe and effective treatment for advanced pelvic organ prolapse,which can significantly improve quality of life in elderly patients.
