Abstract

Objective: In fertile women, hysterocele is a rare condition. Genital prolapse can be treated conservatively with laparoscopic hysterosacropexy. It is objected to present a successful case series of laparoscopic hysteropexy for patients with hysterocele after vaginal delivery. Case report: We presented a successful case series of three patients with III or IV degrees of hysterocele who were treated conservatively with an uncomplicated laparoscopic hysteropexy within a year of delivery. Given our patients' young ages and the fact that they all have infant children at home, we chose a conservative surgery performed laparoscopically due to the lower surgical impact and quicker return to normal life. All surgical procedures were successfully performed, without complications, with a prompt recovery of all women and with a regular subsequent follow-up, without recurrence nowadays. Conclusion: For young women who have not terminated their desire to bear children, laparoscopic hysterepexy may be a safe and effective surgical option.
