Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) significantly impacts the well-being of a substantial portion of parous women over 50 years old1. With an increasing average lifespan, a higher number of women will require POP surgery. The gold standard for treating uterine prolapse is laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (LS), in which the vaginal apex is attached to the sacrum over the third and fourth sacral vertebrae using mesh, boasting a success rate exceeding 95% and long-term durability2. However, LS is a challenging procedure commonly associated with postoperative defecation problems3. Additionally, LS may not be suitable for obese patients. Laparoscopic pectopexy (LP), in which the iliopectineal ligaments are used for a bilateral mesh fixation of vaginal vault or cervical stump, has emerged as a viable alternative to LS for addressing apical prolapse, due to comparable clinical efficacy and a lower incidence of defecation disorders4.
However, the usage of synthetic mesh for apical support in LS and LP causes mesh-related complications, increasing patient suffering and medical expenses5. Our team has published a new procedure called laparoscopic non-mesh cerclage pectopexy (LNMCP), embedding permanent cervical cerclage sutures in the round ligament until the iliopectineal ligament. This was successfully performed with high objective and subjective success rates6. Recent evidence suggests that many women with prolapse issues desire to preserve their uterus, which is paramount for maintaining self-confidence, self-esteem, and a sense of femininity7.
The current research reports the development of a novel approach known as laparoscopic non-mesh cerclage pectopexy with uterine preservation for POP (LNMCPUP) for addressing apical prolapse. This novel technique involves embedding cervical cerclage sutures in the round ligament until the iliopectineal ligament, resulting in a firm uterine suspension. In addition, without using synthetic mesh, this procedure obviates mesh erosion while reducing medical costs. Moreover, this procedure ensures that the uterus is preserved, thereby minimizing perioperative risks associated with hysterectomy and eliminating significant alterations in POP surgery outcomes8.

Laparoscopic Non-Mesh Cerclage Pectopexy with Uterine Preservation for Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) affects millions of women globally and carries a significant socioeconomic burden. Adequate apical support is essential for treating POP. Recent research has increasingly validated the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic pectopexy (LP) for addressing apical POP. However, the cost of synthetic mesh and associated complications restrict the widespread use of this technique. Our team previously published a study describing a novel, non-mesh procedure called laparoscopic non-mesh cerclage pectopexy (LNMCP), demonstrating successful outcomes with satisfactory objective and subjective success rates. Many patients express a preference for retaining their uterus during prolapse surgery due to considerations related to sexuality, partnership, and body image. 
The present research introduces a novel approach known as laparoscopic non-mesh cerclage pectopexy with uterine preservation (LNMCPUP) for POP, wherein the uterus is suspended to the iliopectineal ligament through the round ligament using permanent cerclage sutures. We successfully performed this procedure in 14 cases at our hospital, six of whom still had menstruation, and the remaining eight were postmenopausal, with a mean operation time of 54.43 min (&plusmn; 10.18 min) and an average bleeding volume of 53.57 mL (&plusmn; 48.77 mL). The mean follow-up duration was 19.71 &plusmn; 15.87 months. The objective success rate of LNMCPUP was 100%, with a subjective success rate of 92.86%. No significant complications were observed during or after surgery. LNMCPUP integrates cervical cerclage and shortening of the round ligament, as well as LP without using mesh, thereby eliminating the risk of mesh erosion and lowering healthcare costs. Moreover, this novel technique is relatively easy to master, making it accessible even in rural and underdeveloped areas where synthetic mesh is unavailable. Therefore, it is worthwhile to adopt LNMCPUP in POP patients who desire the preservation of their uterus.

Here we introduce a novel approach known as laparoscopic non-mesh cerclage pectopexy with uterine preservation for pelvic organ prolapse (LNMCPUP) for patients who wish to preserve their uterus. Permanent cerclage sutures are used to suspend the uterus to the iliopectineal ligament through the round ligament.
