Abstract:
Objective To compare the effects of classic intrafascial supracervical hysterectomy(CISH)and laparoscope-assisted vaginal hysterectomy(LAVH)on structure and function of the pelvic floor in women.Methods From March 2003 to December 2005,totally 35 cases of CISH and 44 cases of LAVH were performed in our hospital.The patients were followed up for 22 to 38 months after the operations.During the period,they received physical examination and life quality questionnaire,by which the degree of pelvic organ prolapse and pelvic floor function were evaluated.Results The incidence of cystocele in CISH group was significantly lower than that in LAVH group [11.4%(4/35)vs 34.1%(15/44),?2=5.481,P=0.019],whereas,no significant difference was found in the incidence of rectocele between the two groups [17.1%(6/35)vs 13.6%(6/44),?2=0.186,P=0.666].Seven(15.9%)patients in the LAVH group developed cervix prolapse,while none of the CISH group had such a situation(P=0.016).Life quality questionnaire showed that 5 patients in CISH group and 16 patients in LAVH group were satisfied with their sexual life [14.3%(5/35)vs 38.1%(16/42),?2=5.456,P=0.019].Conclusion CISH is superior to LAVH in protecting the structure and function of the pelvic floor.
