Filter by:The original RCT trial is designed to compare self-tailored titanium-coated polypropylene mesh procedure with mesh-kit in the treatment of POP stage III-IV in terms of efficacy, safety and cost-effective at 1-year follow-up. This study will follow women in the original RCT study for up to 10 years from the time of the surgery to compare success and complication rates in the two groups. Recruitment into this study is open only to women that already participated in previous RCT, no new treatment interventions will be given. Recruitment into the previous RCT is closed. Women will be strongly encouraged to participate in annual examinations and annual telephone surveys but may participate in only one of these study parts if needed.
There is not a study in the literature comparing laparoscopic pectopexy and laparoscopic lateral suspension (LLS) surgeries in the surgical treatment of pelvic organ prolapse. However, there are studies comparing the efficacy of other surgery types for pelvic organ prolapse. For example,In a study, the clinical and anatomical success rate in LLS operations was 83.8%, while the success rate in abdominal sacropexy operation was 89.2%.In another study in which pectopexy and vaginal sacro spinous fixation operations were compared, apical prolapse recurrence rates were found to be similar in both groups.
The goal of this multicenter observational study is to collect data prospectively of patients with pelvic organ prolapse undergoing ventral mesh rectopexy (as well as rectoceles, entero-/sigmoidoceles/ intussusception/ rectal prolapse or combined) by laparoscopy or robotic surgery and to evaluate the longterm functional outcomes. Secondly complications (mesh erosions, recurrence, reoperations) are evaluated. Following main questions will be analysed - other can follow in consultation with the collaborative 1. Is VMR the technique of choice for treatment of rectoceles? Functional results - recurrence - mesh related complications 2. Has a perineal descent an impact on the functional outcome of ventral mesh rectopexy perfored for external rectal prolaps, internal rectal prolaps, rectocele, enterocele, sigmoidcele or combined pelvic organ prolapse?
In frail patients with external full-thickness rectal prolapse (FTRP), the exact postoperative recurrence and functional result outcomes difference between Laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy (LVMR) and perineal stapler resection (PSR) have not been investigated, leading to ineffective treatment. Objectives: Evaluating the efficacy of PSR versus LVMR for treating external FTRP in the elderly. Design: This was a retrospective study that involved multiple centers. Settings: This study was conducted in the colorectal surgical units of our Universities' Hospitals Patients: 330 elderly patients divided into LVMR group (250), and PSR (80) between April 2012 and April 2019. Before and after surgery, patients were evaluated using the Wexner Incontinence Scale, the Altomare Constipation Scale, and the patient's satisfaction. Main outcomes measurement: The primary outcome was the recurrence rate and risk factors of FTRP. Secondary outcomes were postoperative incontinence and constipation and patients' satisfaction.
Obstructive defecation syndrome (ODS) defines a disturbed defecation process frequently associated with pelvic organ prolapse (POP) in women. It substantially compromises quality of life and conservative treatment options are limited. In cases surgery is required the interventions are characterized by individual approaches. Laparoscopic resection rectopexy (L-RRP) combined with laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (L-SCP) was established in an interdisciplinary setting.
The aim of this study was to compare the outcome of levator muscle resection with plication in mild to moderate congenital unilateral blepharoptosis.
The goal of this multicenter observational study is to study self-management of pessary therapy in patients with pelvic organ prolapse. The primary question it aims to answer is: • how many patients succeed learning self-management if offered a standardized training? Secondary outcomes are: - how many patients are willing to learn self-management? - what patient factors contribute to successfully learning self-management and willingness to self-manage? - how satisfied are patients with pessary therapy and self-management? - the occurrence of side-effects - continuation and quitting of pessary therapy and self-management - cross-over to surgery - number of visits to doctor because of pessary therapy - healthcare costs Participants will be asked to fill in questionnaires three times during the study (upon inclusion, 6 weeks and 12 months after starting self-management or after starting pessary therapy with a correctly fitting pessary). Researchers will compare the self-managing patient to the non-self-managing patients.
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a major public health concern that adversely affects the physical and psychological well-being of women. In fact, the lifetime risk of POP surgery is 12.6%, highlighting the magnitude of the problem. The most common form of POP involves defects in the anterior vaginal wall accompanied by apical prolapse. The primary objective of surgical treatment for POP is to mitigate symptoms and restore the pelvic support anatomy. Normally, the vaginal axis is directed posteriorly towards the S3 and S4 vertebrae, lying relatively horizontally to the levator plate, and forming an angle of about 130º between the middle and lower vagina. Although sacrocolpopexy (SCP) is considered the gold standard for treating POP, it alters the normal anatomical position of the vaginal axis towards the sacral promontory, which may increase the abdominal pressure load on the anterior wall and cause urge symptoms or de novo anterior compartment prolapse. Similarly, sacrospinous ligament fixation (SSLF) increases the risk of anterior vaginal wall prolapse, as it deviates the vaginal axis towards the posterior. However, laparoscopic lateral mesh suspension has recently become popular because it preserves the normal position of the vaginal axis, preventing such complications. A previous study found that the pectineal ligament (Cooper's ligament) is composed of stronger and more durable tissue than the sacrospinous ligament and arcus tendineus of the fascia pelvis. This structure is robust and can hold sutures well, and it is possible to find sufficient material for a suture in the lateral part of the iliopectineal ligament, facilitating pelvic floor reconstruction. This segment of the ligament is located at the second sacral vertebra (S2) level, which is the optimal level for the physiological axis of the vagina. S2 level serves as the anchor point for the physiological axis of the vagina. Further studies have demonstrated that laparoscopic pectopexy provides outcomes comparable to those of laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy for supporting the apical compartment during intermediate follow-up duration. The current study aimed to investigate the level of anatomical correction following laparoscopic pectopexy and compare the vaginal axis of patients with apical genital prolapse to that of nulliparous women using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to determine if removal of transurethral urinary catheters by patients at home is as safe as catheter removal in the office following urogynecologic surgery. Participants will be randomized to either standard catheter removal in the office or catheter self-removal at home.
This is a prospective, randomized multicenter study whose objective is to compare two surgical techniques routinely used at our center for the correction of pelvic organ prolapse (laparoscopic cervicosacropexis versus colposuspension sec. Shull using v-NOTES).
