OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the influence of age on laparoscopic colposacropexy (LCS) outcome and complications for pelvic organ prolapse. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective and comparative study of 105 patients who underwent standard LCS for Baden-Walker graded pelvic organ prolapse from February 2002 to March 2015. They were categorized into two groups according to age. Group 1 consisted in ≤ 50 years old patients and included 55 women. Group 2 included 50 women who were ≥ 60 years old. Outcomes and complications were compared in both groups. RESULTS: Previous history of abdominal surgery or surgery for pelvic floor disorders was significantly greater in group 2 (43.6 vs 70%). There was no significant difference regarding urinary stress incontinence, urge incontinence or severe organ prolapse between groups (47.2 vs 36%; 1.8 vs 8% and 90.9 vs 92% for Groups 1 and 2 respectively). Although a statistically significant greater proportion of vaginal vault prolapse was present in the elderly group (16.3 vs 38%), the same LCS surgical technique was used in both groups of patients. Despite operating time was significantly greater in the younger group (205.8 ± 53.4 minutes in Group 1 vs 182 ± 42.3 minutes in Group 2), hospital stay was similar in both groups (2.9 ± 1.1 days vs 3.0 ± 1.9 days in group 1 and group 2 respectively). Postoperative complications were not severe and there were no clinically significant differences between groups (20 vs 14%). We found no statistically differences between groups when comparing cure rates (87 vs 92%) in groups 1 and 2 respectively, patient satisfaction and postoperative anatomical findings. CONCLUSIONS: LCS has shown excellent cure rates in both young and elder female patients with pelvic organ prolapse.
