Objective To investigate the effect of bilateral sacrospinous ligament fixation by Pavlik harness method in the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Methods Sixty patients with POP received operation were divided into bilateral sacrospinous ligament fixation by Pavlik harness method group (study group,30 cases),posterior intravaginal sling plasty group (P-IVS group, 15 cases) and sacrospinous ligament fixation group (SSLF group, 15 cases) by random digits table. The data of the three groups, such as operation time, bleeding during the operation, indwelling urinary catheter time, duration out of bed after operation, cure rate, recurrence rate and the quality of sexual life were observed. Results The operation time in study group [( 30.5 ± 5.3 ) min] was significantly shorter than that in SSLF group [(43.5 ± 10.6) min](P ＜ 0.05 ), and the duration out of bed in study group [( 1.5 ± 0.6) d] was earlier than that in SSLF group [(3.1 ±0.7) d] and P-IVS group [(3.3 ±0.8) d](P＜0.05). The POP-Q stage of all the patients being hospital was 0 or Ⅰ , approached the cure standard. Patients were followed up for 3-16 months after operation, the recurrence rate and the decrease of the quality of sexual life in study group [0,3.3%(1/30)]were lower than those in P-IVS group [20.0%(3/15),13.3%(2/15)] and SSLF group[6.7%(1/15),26.7%(4/15)] (P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion Bilateral sacrospinous ligament fixation by Pavlik harness method is a simple, firm operation, and the position of vagina does not axialitily change and suits the anatomy, so it is effective and worth spreading clinically to treat the POP.
