The cohort was linked to the Finnish Care Register to catch any prolapse\u2010related diagnoses and operation codes following the hysterectomy. Different hysterectomy approaches were compared according to the risk for a prolapse, including abdominal, laparoscopic, laparoscopic\u2010assisted vaginal and vaginal. The main outcomes were POP surgery and outpatient visit for POP, and Cox regression was used to identify risk factors (hazard ratios [HR]).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>During the follow\u2010up, 58 women (1.6%) underwent a POP operation, of which a posterior repair was the most common (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a039, 1.1%). Outpatient visits for POP symptoms occurred in 92 (2.6%) women of which posterior wall prolapses (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a058, 1.6%) were the most common. History of laparoscopic\u2010assisted vaginal hysterectomy were associated with risk for POP operation (HR 3.0, <jats:italic>p\u2009=<\/jats:italic>\u00a00.02), vaginal vault prolapse operation (HR 4.3, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.01) and POP visits (HR 2.2, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.01) as compared to the approach of abdominal hysterectomy. History of vaginal deliveries and concomitant stress urinary continence operation were associated with the risk for a POP operation (HR 4.4 and 11.9) and POP visits (HR 3.9 and 7.2).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Risk for POP operations and outpatient visits for POP symptoms in hysterectomized women without a preceding POP seems to be small at least 10\u2009years after hysterectomy. History of LAVH, vaginal deliveries and concomitant stress urinary incontinence operations increased the risk for POP operations after hysterectomy. These data can be utilized in counseling women considering hysterectomy for benign indication.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/aogs.14542","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,4]],"date-time":"2023-04-04T15:59:37Z","timestamp":1680623977000},"page":"556-566","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Pelvic
