About

The investigators planned to measure the effectiveness of laparoscopic pectopexy in apical prolapse and whether the addition of sacrouterine ligaments plication to pectopexy increases the effectiveness of pectopexy operation. Investigators planned to measure patients' quality of life using the female sexual function scale test 3, 6 and 12 months after the surgery and to determine how the operation affects the quality of sexual life.
