Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of transumbilical single-port laparoscopic high uterosacral ligament suspension(HUS)and iliacpubic ligament fixation(ILF)in the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse(POP)mainly caused by middle pelvic defects.Methods Clinical data of 15 cases of POP with middle pelvic defects from June 2017 to June 2023 were analyzed retrospectively.The HUS and ILF were performed by transumbilical single-port laparoscopy.At one year after operation,gynecological examination(POP-Q system)and maximum straining pelvic MRI examination were performed for objective evaluation.The Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory Short Form(PFDI-20)and Pelvic Organ Prolapse-Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire(PISQ-12)were used for subjectiveevaluation.Results Theoperationtimewas 65-135 min(mean,102.9±16.3 min),thebleedingvolumewas 20-50 ml,and the postoperative hospital stay was 6-9 d.Follow-up time ranged from 6 to 72 months(mean,42.8±22.3 months),among which 14 cases were≥12 months.No pelvic pain,lumbosacral pain,urinary retention and thread exposure occurred.Stress urinary incontinence(SUI)occurred in 1 case at 1 year after operation.Surgical failure was noted in 1 case(degree Ⅱ),the objective success rate being 93.3%(14/15).At 1 year after operation,the distance from the anatomical landmarks of pelvic MRI to the pubococcygeal line(PCL)was significantly higher than that before operation(P<0.01),and the PFDI-20 and PISQ-12 scores were significantly better than those before operation(P<0.01).Conclusions Transumbilical single-port laparoscopic HUS and ILF is a safe and effective mutual aid procedure for the treatment of POP mainly caused by middle pelvic defects with surgical indications,which can improve pelvic floor function and quality of life.It is simple and easy to perform with low cost of consumables,which is suitable for primary hospitals.

Objective : To explore the possible mechanism of glycyrrhetinic acid on inhibiting malignant biological behaviors of melanoma by Wnt / β-catenin pathways． Methods: The melanoma cells B16-F10 were selected as the research objects．The concentration gradient tests (0，1，2，4 μmol /L) were conducted by MTT．The cells given cisplatin intervention was enrolled as positive controls．The cells invasion and migration were detected by Transwell chamber assay．The expression levels of Wnt / β-catenin pathway proteins，invasion and migration related proteins (MMP-2，MMP-9) in B16-F10 cells were detected by Wester blot．The xenograft models of nude mice were constructed，and they were divided into control group (without drugs treatment) and glycyrrhetinic acid group (40 mg / kg) ．The growth of tumor tissues，and expression levels of Wnt / β-catenin pathway proteins，invasion and migration related proteins were observed.
