Laparoscopic Ventrosuspension for Women With Retroverted Uterus and Pelvic Pain Syndromes: A New Approach

July 24, 2019 updated by: Ahmed M Maged, MD, Cairo University
In women with retroverted retroverted uterus complaining of pelvic pain, Laparoscopy was done. Under vision the skin overlying the attachment of the round ligament to the anterior abdominal wall was incised followed by introduction of 30 curved needle attached to absorpable Vicryl 2/0 suture through the incision and withdrawn through grasper under laparoscopi vision. The needle was turned around the round ligament all through its length to plicate it then the needle was pushed again beside its entry side to appear at the skin incision. The same was repeated on the other side and both sutures were tied at the subcutaneous tissue simultaneously. then the laparoscopy was withdrawn followed by closure of the skin incision.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Postoperative pain: VAS
Time Frame: 6 months after the operation
The visual analogue scale or visual analog scale (VAS) is a psychometric response scale which can be used in questionnaires. It is a measurement instrument for subjective characteristics or attitudes that cannot be directly measured. When responding to a VAS item, respondents specify their level of agreement to a statement by indicating a position along a continuous line between two endpoints.
