Filter by:Aim of this work is to compare results between Laparoscopic Anterior Mesh Rectopexy and Laparoscopic Posterior Mesh Rectopexy for patients with rectal prolapse by assessment of operative time, intraoperative blood loss , intraoperative organ injury, overall length of hospital stay, recurrence,and improvement of incontinence and constipation.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the vaginal estriol before vaginal surgery for pelvic statics disorders is more efficacy of no estriol treatment on vaginal health and quality of life.
Outcomes of laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy are well known, but data on intra-operative adverse events is scant. A multicenter pool-analysis of prospectively collected database on 1384 patients with internal/external rectal prolapse toke place. Overall 72 (5%) patients experienced complications, 41 discovered and managed intraoperatively, 22 postoperative complications, and 9 required readmission. Despite accepted lower rate of morbidity, these results come from four well equipped European centers by four surgeons practiced at least 200 LVMR.
Female urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse are common diseases especially in aged women that frequently cause urogenital infection, voiding difficulty, urinary retention, pelvic pain, constipation, and coital difficulty, as well as impact the quality of life of women. Risk factors of the above diseases include pregnancy, vaginal delivery, and menopausal status. Despite playing a crucial role in the pathophysiology of the above diseases, the urogenital skeletal muscular dysfunction cannot be fully corrected via the current treatment modalities. The human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) represent a prime candidate cell type for current research and future cell therapy because of their significant self-renewal, differentiation potential and the relative lack of ethical conflict. With the advent of efficient technology of reprogramming peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) into hiPSCs, researchers can generate personalized lines of cells from which it will be possible to obtain differentiated cells in a less invasive way, introducing opportunities in treating diseases that are now considered incurable. Until very recently, little success has been achieved in terms of skeletal muscle differentiation from hiPSCs. The purpose of this study is to explore the applicability of the differentiation into skeletal muscle progenitor cells from hiPSC cell lines and the associated biomolecular messages. It is anticipated that the derived skeletal muscle progenitor cells can be reprogrammed from PBMCs of female patients with urinary incontinence and/or pelvic organ prolapse and used in preclinical testing for relieving female urogenital problems.
The purpose of this study is to compare anatomical differences, quality of life and sexual function and complications rate between apical support with one anterior vaginal mesh versus repair with two separate meshes.
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a relatively common cardial problem in which one or more of the leaflets of the mitral valve prolapse during systole into the left atrium. The disease is very heterogeneous and can vary from a benign disease with almost no impact on the patient's life to a severe cardiac problem with many complications and high mortality rate. The purpose of the study is to see if the investigators can find a relation between the severity of the MVP to the exercise capacity of the patient. The investigators also want to see if they can find a difference between the exercise capacity of mild MVP patients and healthy people. To evaluate the exercise capacity of the subjects the investigators use Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET). CPET is probably the best known way to get a full picture of the subject's functions during exercise. By combining gas exchange monitoring and ECG during a controlled exercise in which the subject reaches maximal effort, the test gives information about the cardiac, the pulmonary and the metabolic functions of the subject. This information can help identify if there is a problem to perform exercise properly and more specifically if the limitation is due to a cardiac, pulmonary or metabolic problem.
