Laparoscopic Supracervical Hysterectomy and Sacropexy Versus Hysteropexy Study (HysPex)

September 1, 2020 updated by: Dimitri Sarlos, Kantonsspital Aarau

Laparoscopic Supracervical Hysterectomy and Sacropexy Compared to Uterus Conserving Hysteropexy: a Randomized Clinical Trial

The purpose of this study is to compare the operative, anatomic functional outcome as well as the subjective outcome of laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy and sacropexy compared to laparoscopic hysteropexy (conserving the uterus).

The investigators expect that both laparoscopic procedures are equal in regards to operation time, complication rate, anatomic and functional outcome as well as subjective outcome.
