Outcomes of transvaginal uterosacral ligament suspension: systematic review and metaanalysis.
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology 2010 Februrary
This systematic review of uterosacral ligament suspension provides a metaanalysis of anatomic outcomes and a summary of subjective outcomes. A successful anatomic outcome was considered present when women had "optimal" or "satisfactory" (pelvic organ prolapse quantification system stage 0 or 1) outcomes. In the anterior, apical, and posterior compartments, the pooled rates for a successful outcome were 81.2% (95% confidence interval [CI], 67.5-94.5%), 98.3% (95% CI, 95.7-100%), and 87.4% (95% CI, 67.5-94.5%). In the anterior compartment, women with preoperative stage 2 prolapse were more likely than those with preoperative stage 3 prolapse to have a successful anatomic outcome (92.4% vs 66.8%; P = .06). Outcomes, with respect to subjective symptoms, were reassuring; however, it was not possible to pool data because of methodologic differences between studies.
