Objective: To describe and compare the outcomes of patients undergoing anterior hysteropexy via vaginal approach without mesh versus vaginal hysterectomy for the treatment of uterine prolapse.
Methods: Seventeen patients underwent anterior hysteropexy via vaginal approach without mesh over the course of two years to treat uterine prolapse. Several variables were analysed and compared with a similar cohort of patients who underwent vaginal hysterectomy for the same indication.
Results: Both techniques are effective for the treatment of uterine prolapse, with no statistically significant difference, except for the length of hospital stay, which was shorter for the hysteropexy group (p < 0.001).
Conclusion: our study shows a slight tendency in favour of vaginal hysteropexy, as it demonstrates similar success rates with a shorter average length of hospital stay compared to vaginal hysterectomy.
