Serious Complications and Recurrence following Sacrospinous Ligament Fixation for the Correction of Apical Prolapse.

ABSTRACT: Objective: To evaluate the rates of serious complications and reoperation for recurrence following sacrospinous ligament fixation (SSLF) for apical pelvic organ prolapse. Methods: This was a national registry ancillary cohort comparative study. The VIGI-MESH registry includes data from 24 French health centers prospectively collected between May 2017 and September 2021. Time to occurrence of a serious complication or reoperation for genital prolapse recurrence was explored using the Kaplan-Meier curve and Log-rank test. The inverse probability of treatment weighting, based on propensity scores, was used to adjust for between-group differences. Results: A total of 1359 women were included and four surgical groups were analyzed: Anterior SSLF with mesh (n = 566), Anterio
