Pectopexy for Apical Prolapse Management

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of pectopexy for treatment of apical pelvic organ prolapse at follow up at 12 months. Investigator also evaluates complications, improvement of symptoms, quality-of-life outcomes and patient satisfaction with surgery. Assessment of restoration of normal pelvic anatomy and lower urinary tract symptoms using transperineal ultrasound

Clinical Trial Description

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) substantially affects the quality of life (QOL) of women, with a global prevalence of 20% to 65% .Surgery is the major treatment option for patients with POP at POP Quantification (POP-Q) stage ≥II, especially after failure of conservative treatments . Apical pelvic organ prolapse is a common issue in Egypt with significant incidence rate due to many predisposing factors including increasing age, higher gravidity and parity (especially the number of vaginal births . Apical support is the most important factor for the successful outcome of pelvic reconstruction surgery. Apical suspension can be performed transabdominally or transvaginally using native tissue or a synthetic mesh . Abdominal sacropexy is considered now the gold standard operation for treatment of apical pelvic organ prolapse . However , many intraoperative complication can occur including hemorrhage or transfusion or both occurred in 4.4% , intestinal injury or rectal injury in 1.6% (0.4% to 2.5%),and ureteral injury in 1.0% of cases. Postoperative complications include paralytic ileus in 3.6%.transient femoral nerve injury and vertebral osteomyelitis . Sacropexy also has a long steep learning curve . Pectopexy has been in 2011 where synthetic mesh is fixed to the pectineal ligaments bilaterally.This surgery is presumed to have fewer complications because the surgical field is limited to the anterior pelvis, with a decreased risk of injury to the adjacent organs. The technique is suitable for surgeons seeking an attractive alternative for patients in a context of high morbidity and/or with difficult access to the promontory . However, adequate evidence to support this surgical option still needs further studies. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
