Özet
Aim: We aimed to present the outcomes of five pregnant women who had laparoscopic pectopexy in their past. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we reviewed all female patients who underwent modified laparoscopic pectopexy between 2016 and 2018 at our hospital. Polypropylene monofilament mesh was used for the pectopexy procedure in 36 cases of women suffering from apical pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Five women were pregnant at different dates after the surgery; we included them in the study (n = 5). We collected data including age, gravidity, parity, magnetic resonance image, sonographic image, POP – Quantification scores, neonatal results from the hospital database. Results: After uneventful examinations during pregnancy, four women delivered via caesarean section; one of them got pregnant again and delivered successfully. We did not see relapse in apical prolapse or other compartments 3, 6 and 12 months after delivery. All women gave high satisfaction scores regarding POP at 12 months after delivery. Conclusion: Laparoscopic pectopexy is an effective and alternative procedure for women with POP and a good option for preserving fertility. We found that pregnancy did not adversely affect the short-term success of laparoscopic pectopexy, and vice versa.
