The aim of the study will be to compare the laparoscopic pectopexy (LP) and laparoscopic lateral suspension (LLS) techniques in the management of uterine sparing apical prolapse (POP-Q >2) at 1 year and yearly up to 2 years.
Primary and secondary endpoints:
Primary outcome measures will be the subjective cure of prolapse ("absence or presence of a bulge in the vagina"), objective success with anatomic absence of advanced prolapse at POP-Q sites Ba, C and Bp defined as less than 1 cm individually and as a total.
Secondary outcome measures include all other parameters such as perioperative outcomes, patient satisfaction, quality of life outcomes, complications, scores on questionnaires, and reoperations.
The study protocol will be submitted to the institutional review boards of every participating study site and written informed consent will be obtained from all participants on enrolment.
Project design: The investigators will perform an international multicentre single-blind randomized controlled trial with participating our tertiary referral hospital.

| Subjective cure rate of prolapse | Provided by the patient's feeling of the "Absence of a bulge in the vagina" | [ Time Frame: 12 months after intervention ] |

| Prolapse-related Quality of life | This will be assessed using a validated questionnaire (Prolapse Quality of Life questionnaire P-QoL) The questionnaire contains 9 domains. Each answer of the patient will have values that range between 1 to 4 or 1 to 5 for the 1st question only). (1 very good 4/5 very poor). There is no overall score. A symptomatic woman might have only one domain impaired and another one might have all domains impaired. We consider both of them symptomatic but in different or same aspects of quality of life. To differentiate different domains, it is important for the decision of our surgery (we will be careful in shortening and narrowing a vagina of a woman who had only a preoperative high (impaired) Personal relationships domain score and other domains in the normal range). This will also help us in the follow up visits. |

| Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire (PISQ-12) | The PISQ-12 is a self-adminestered questionnaire that evaluates sexual function of women with pelvic organ prolapse or urinary incontinence. The questionnaire has 12 items. Other than the first 4 questions that are scored from 4 to 0, all questions are scored from 0 to 4. The total score is calculated with totaling the score of each question. The maximum score is 48. Higher scores show good sexual functioning of women. | [ Time Frame: 12 months after intervention ] |
