Gynecologists ’ perspectives on surgical treatment for apical prolapse: a qualitative study

ConclusionsRecurrent apical prolapse is the most important factor in advising patients which treatment they should undergo for VVP or uterine descent. Also, the patient ’s health status and the patient’s own preference are important factors. Gynecologists who do not perform the SCP in their own clinic are more likely to perform a VSF and find more reasons not to advise a SCP. All participants prefer a vaginal surgery for a primary uterine prolapse.
