Native tissue repair for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is the predominant surgical technique in the investigators department and the Manchester operation the preferred procedure. The investigators long-term reoperation rates for pevic organ prolapse are very low, as documented in the investigators previous long-term follow-up study (Oversand et al, International Urogynecology Journal 2013), however the data were retrospective and patients with avulsions of the levator ani muscle were not identified. The investigators hypothesize that correct fixation and elevation of the vaginal apex, as part of a three-compartment repair procedure, is essential in the POP surgical repair, also when treating women with levator ani avulsions. The purpose of this study is to: * prospectively evaluate if cardinal/sacrouterine ligament plication (as part of the 3-compartment Manchester procedure) gives an adequate elevation and fixation of the vaginal apex. * assess changes in subjective symptoms between the preoperative evaluation and the 1 and 5-year postoperative evaluations. * evaluate whether the patients identified with levator avulsions in the investigators population have an increased risk of failure (objectively and subjectively).
