[A five-year analysis of effect on transvaginal high uterosacral ligament suspension with or without native-tissue repair for middle compartment defect].
Objective: To assess the five-year effect of the transvaginal high uterosacral ligament suspension (HUS) with or without additional concomitant native-tissue anterior and (or) posterior repair in women suffering from middle compartment defect. Methods: A retrospective review of records identified 79 women who underwent transvaginal HUS with or without additional concomitant native-tissue anterior and (or) posterior repair from January 2007 to January 2018 in Fourth Medical Center, General Hospital of People's Liberation Army. The middle compartment defects were predominant in these patients with point C no less than point Ba or Bp if accompanied with anterior or posterior vaginal wall prolapse. ⋯ Conclusions: The transvaginal HUS for middle compartment defect offers good long-term anatomical results with excellent vault suspension. With additional concomitant native-tissue anterior and (or) posterior repair, it will be a reconstructive surgery for the majority of moderate-to-severe POP. It is minimal traumatic and worthy of being popularized for clinical application.
