Filter by:This is a double (physician and patient) blinded randomized controlled clinical trial in which patients who have undergone bilateral direct brow ptosis repair undergo a trial in which one of brow is injected with placebo 0.9% Normal Saline and the contra-lateral brow is injected with 0.3-0.6 mL over the entire brow of 50mg/mL 5-Fluorouracil sub-dermal injections. The researchers aim to investigate whether injecting 5-Fluorouracil preemptively will not only accelerate wound healing and decrease hypertrophic scar formation compared to placebo, but also improve overall scar appearance in a safe manner.
In this prospective, comparative non-randomized multiple teaching hospitals study, the investigators try to determine the relationship of total hysterectomy and Taiwanese female pelvic floor and sexual function from the view of epidemiology and clinical survey. This is an important issue that related to female autonomy, health care resources and even national health policy. The study results will help to understand whether there is unnecessary part in the current hysterectomy procedures and its potential health hazard.
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a public health problem worldwide, affecting about 30 %. It implies physical, psychological and social losses. A frequent complication after surgeries for POP is developing de novo stress urinary incontinence (SUI). SUI and POP have similar pathophysiology and therefore it is common to coexist in the same patient. De novo SUI has a prevalence 11-44 % after surgical correction of genital prolapse. Occult urinary incontinence (OUI) is considered the major risk factor for postoperative SUI. Studies on this topic show conflicting results. In a recent meta-analysis on this subject, Maher et al concluded that the value of performing any anti- incontinence procedure in continent women undergoing prolapse surgery remains unknown. The aims of this study are to evaluate whether the association of a transvaginal tape (TVT®) in continent patients undergoing surgery for prolapse decreases the risk of de novo SUI and if it implies an improvement in their quality of life. The secondary endpoints are to assess the complications associated with this procedure, as irritative symptoms and voiding dysfunction postoperatively and assessing the ability of stress testing with reduced POP and urodynamics in predicting the risk of de novo SUI. This study will be a prospective, multicentric, randomized experimental study. Patients with anterior or apical prolapse stages 3 and 4 (POP - Q) will be invited to participate in the study. The study will assess these patients for staging of prolapse, the presence of occult urinary incontinence and quality of life. Selected patients will be randomized to perform correction of genital prolapse and prophylactic anti-incontinence procedure or correction of genital prolapse only. Patients will be assessed 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery. Postoperative evaluation will be similar to preoperative. The exclusion criteria are: complaint or diagnosis of stress urinary incontinence before reduction of the prolapse, previous surgery for incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse, hypocontractility detrusor in urodynamics and inability to understand and give informed consent.
1. To evaluate whether a standardized tension-free vaginal tape-obturator(TVT-O) procedure, when added to a planned improved reconstruction pelvic surgery, improves the rate of urinary stress continence in subjects with occult stress incontinence. 2. Observe the immediate and short-term complications, overall urinary tract function, and other aspects of pelvic health between subjects with and without a TVT-O procedure.
The purpose of this study is to compare the vaginal sacrospinous colpopexy and high uterosacral colpopexy in the treatment of genital prolapse grade III/IV in women with uterus.
A RCT study to compare traditional colporrhaphy versus polypropylene mesh in treatment of the anterior vaginal wall prolapse.
