Abstract :
Local data regarding Manchester repair are not available in the current literature. We report a retrospective case series of 7 women who presented with uterine prolapse, and underwent Manchester repair from January 1997 to May2008 at King Abdulaziz UniversityJeddah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. All of these women were multiparous (para 3±1) and wanted to avoid hysterectomy, and become pregnant. The duration of the procedure was 119 ± 16 minutes. No operative complications were observed. The mean duration of follow up was 5+2 years. All of the women were satisfied with the procedure. Two (28.6%) patients subsequently became pregnant and had a successful vaginal delivery. Manchester repair is a valid alternative to hysterectomy for women with a second degree uterine prolapse who want to preserve their fertility
