Abstract:
Objective To investigate the quality of marriage and sexual function of cervical cancer patients following radical hysterectomy and vaginal extension.Methods Case-control and questionnairebased methods were used in this study.Forty patients of early-stage (Ⅰ b 1 ~ Ⅰ b2) cervical cancer who had undergone vaginal extension following classic radical hysterectomy were included in the observation group,while 40 patients with matching factors and radical hysterectomy only during the same period were included in the control group.The quality of marriage and sexual function were compared with OLSON marriage prolapse and incontinence sexual function questionnaire Shon Fonn (PISQ-12).Results The operation time and postoperative vaginal length in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01).The emotional,physical,and total scores during postoperation were lower than those during preoperation (P < 0.01).The emotional,physical,and total scores in the control group were lower than those in the observation group (P < 0.01).The marital satisfaction,husband and wife communication,conflict resolution methods,extracurricular activities and sex scores in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01).Conclusions Patients with peritoneovaginoplasty following radical hysterectomy had much longer vagina and less self-perceived short vagina.Vaginal extension following radical hysterectomy does not worsen the pelvic floor symptoms.
