Brief Summary

A Prospective, Randomized Comparison of Efficacy and Effect on Quality of Life Between Sacrospinous Ligament Fixation and Ischial Spine Fascia Fixation.

Detailed Description

Investigational intervention:SSLF or ISFF operations

Study title:A Prospective, Randomized Comparison of Efficacy and Effect on Quality of Life Between Sacrospinous Ligament Fixation and Ischial Spine Fascia Fixation.

Principal Investigator:Chang Ren, M.D., Department of Obstetrics \& Gynecology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences \& Peking Union Medical College.

Study subjects:Adult patients with symptomatic stage II\~IV pelvic organ prolapse will be eligible if all the inclusion criteria are met and without any reason for exclusion.

Study objectives:The primary objective of this study is to assess the short and mid-term efficacy of Sacrospinous Ligament Fixation and Ischial Spine Fascia Fixation in treating stage II\~ IV pelvic organ prolapse and their recurrence rate as well as their impacts on quality of life.

Study design:Prospective, Single-Blind, Randomized, Clinical Trial

Intervention:

* ISFF group:Patients receive ISFF according to randomization.

* SSLF group:Patients receive SSLF according to randomization

Sample size:76 patients (38 in ISFF group, 38 in SSLF group)

Primary endpoint:

•objective success rates at 3 months after operations.

Secondary endpoints:

* peri-operative parameters .

* subjective satisfactory rates at 1 year after operations

* quality of life questionnaires at 1 year after operations

Safety endpoints: complications
