Laparoscopic surgery for dropped uterus: mesh vs no mesh
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of laparoscopic surgery to fix a dropped uterus (pelvic organ prolapse) — one using a mesh support and one without. It's for women who are ready to have their uterus removed and want to see which approach works better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a surgery to fix vaginal cuff prolapse (when the top of the vagina drops down) in women who have had a hysterectomy. It may help relieve symptoms and improve quality of life.
This trial compares two types of laparoscopic surgery for female genital prolapse — one using a mesh and one without. It aims to see which approach works better and is safer for women needing this operation.
This study tests two types of laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery to repair pelvic organ prolapse, a condition where pelvic organs drop into the vaginal area. One method uses mesh to support the vaginal top, and the other repairs the front or back vaginal wall. It aims to find which approach works best.
This trial compares two surgical ways to support the uterus without removing it: a vaginal approach versus a laparoscopic (camera) approach. It may help you choose the method that best improves uterine prolapse symptoms and function.
