POPQ Associated With Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the impact of different hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) techniques on the risk of pelvic organ prolapse (situation when one or more of your pelvic organs like your bladder, uterus, or rectum have dropped down or slipped out of their normal position, sometimes even bulging into the vagina) and urinary incontinence (leaking urine unexpectedly) in women aged 18-85 who underwent hysterectomy or supracervical hysterectomy (removing of the uterus without its cervix) for benign (not cancer) conditions.
The main question is: to check how different surgical technique (laparoscopic, with opening the abdomen, vaginal and robotic) increase the risk of pelvic organ prolapse or urinary incontinence There is no randomization or control group; comparisons will be made between surgery types based on clinical and questionnaire data.
Participants will:
* Receive an invitation to participate if they underwent hysterectomy between 2021-2025.
* Fill out validated quality of life questionnaires (P-QOL, POPDI-6, PFIQ-7) every two years.
* Attend follow-up clinical pelvic exams every two years to assess vaginal cuff healing, pelvic organ prolapses (POP-Q system), and urinary symptoms.
This prospective, non-commercial, multicenter study plans to enroll 2,000 women and will run from July 1, 2025, to July 1, 2036
