The paper reviews the data available in the literature and those obtained by the authors on the surgical treatment of 78 women with genital prolapse in the Gynecology Unit, Simferopol Perinatal Center, in 2019 to 2022. The common complaints in patients who visited the healthcare facility were external genital organ discomfort, periodic aching pains in the lower abdomen and lower back, and vaginal foreign body sensation. The most common comorbidities were lower extremity varicosities (56%), coronary heart disease (38%), obesity (35%), and hypertension (34%). The mean duration of surgery was slightly longer, as well as blood loss was slightly greater and bed days were slightly more in the vaginal hysterectomy group. The results of assessing the quality of life a year after surgery indicate the high efficiency of treatment in all the four groups; however, the patients who underwent laparoscopic promontofixation show the best results.
Conclusion: In the authors’ opinion, the use of laparoscopic promontofixation is a preferred technique for surgical correction of genital prolapse. However, the analysis allows the authors to judge that all methods for correction of genital prolapse continue to be actively used in practical healthcare.
