Surgical treatment of pelvic organ prolapse in women aged ≥75 years in Hong Kong : a multicentre retrospective study
INTRODUCTION: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is common among older women. With the increasing lifespan and emphasis on quality of life worldwide, older women increasingly prefer surgical treatment for POP. We reviewed the surgical treatment of POP in older women to characterise its safety, effectiveness, and the type most often selected.
METHODS: This multicentre, retrospective study was conducted at four hospitals between 2013 and 2018. Included patients were aged ≥75 years and had undergone POP surgery. We compared patient demographic characteristics, POP severity, and surgical outcomes between reconstructive and obliterative surgeries; these comparisons were also made among vaginal hysterectomy plus pelvic floor repair (VHPFR), transvaginal mesh surgery (TVM), vaginal hysterectomy (VH) plus colpocleisis, and colpocleisis alone.
RESULTS: In total, 343 patients were included; 84.3% and 15.7% underwent reconstructive and obliterative surgeries, respectively. Overall, 246 (71.7%), 43 (12.5%), 20 (5.8%), and 34 (9.9%) patients underwent VHPFR, TVM, VH plus colpocleisis, and colpocleisis alone, respectively. Patients who were older (81.9 vs 79.6 y; P=0.001), had vault prolapse (38.9% vs 3.5%; P<0.001), and had medical co-morbidities (37% vs 4.8%; P<0.001) chose obliterative surgery more frequently than reconstructive surgery. Obliterative surgeries had shorter operative time (73.5 min vs 107 min; P<0.001) and fewer surgical complications (9.3% vs 28.0%; P=0.003). Vaginal hysterectomy plus pelvic floor repair had the highest rate of surgical complications (most were minor), while colpocleisis alone had the lowest rate (30.1% vs 8.8%; P=0.01).
CONCLUSIONS: Pelvic organ prolapse surgeries were safe and effective for older women. Colpocleisis may be appropriate as primary surgery for fragile older women.
