Official Title: Is Absorbable Suture Non-Inferior to Permanent Suture in Sacrospinous Ligament Suspension? A Randomized Controlled Trial
Brief Summary:
Sacrospinous ligament suspension (SSLS) was first described in 1958.It is commonly performed for correction of apical prolapse.A combination of delayed absorbable and/or permanent sutures are commonly used for the procedure.When permanent sutures are used, risk of suture-related complications is present and patients may require suture removal.In available literature, there is limited data comparing the efficacy and suture-related complications when using different types of sutures.A previous randomized…
