Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and the associated functional disorders are a major epidemiological problem that compromises the quality of life (QoL). The aim of this study was to assess the impact of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) related to POP and vaginal native tissue repair (VNTR) on QoL. Two hundred patients with symptomatic POP were stratified into four groups according to the dominant storage phase function disorders: Urgency; stress urinary incontinence (SUI); mixed urinary incontinence (MUI), and without clinically significant symptoms from lower urinary tract (LUT). They underwent VNTR from January 2018 to February 2019. After 12 months, the QoL was assessed by the Prolapse Quality of Life (P-QoL) and visual analogue scale (VAS) questionnaires. The data were analyzed with Statistica package version 12.0 (StatSoft, Krakow, Poland), using the Kalmogorow-Smirnoff, Shapiro-Wilk W and the one-way analysis of variance with post hoc Tukey tests. The results of P-QoL showed significant improvement ( p &lt; 0.05) in all the study groups in most domains assessed before surgery and 12 months after surgery. Significant improvements in all the symptoms assessed by the VAS scale results were found in groups Urgency and MUI. The LUTS questionnaire revealed significant improvement in all voiding and post voiding symptoms in these groups. VNTR effectively eliminated LUTS and significantly improved the patients' QoL associated with POP.
