Transvaginal cystocele correction: Midterm results with a transobturator tension‐free technique using a combined bovine pericardium/polypropylene mesh

Abstract

The use of a composite bovine pericardium/polypropylene mesh for cystocele correction is feasible and safe, yielding good results at midterm follow up.

The outcome of transobturator anterior vaginal wall prolapse repair using porcine dermis graft: intermediate term follow-up

“…This patient presented with vaginal irritation and dyspareunia, and the site of the exposure was at the junction between the biological graft and the synthetic arm (Riv Fix). Exposure at the biological/synthetic graft interface was also reported by Araco et al (21). The exposed part was successfully trimmed in the office with resolution of the patient's symptoms.…”

Use of vaginal mesh for pelvic organ prolapse repair: a literature review

“…No rectal injury was reported in randomized studies, versus 0.58% out of 5,877 patients in cohorts (47 NRT). Two nonrandomized studies have mentioned vaginal perforations (4.35% of 99 patients) [33,34]. Randomized studies showed no difference with or without mesh reinforcement regarding to these complications, and recently Altman confirmed this result [23].…”

“…Paraiso was the only one to report a pelvic abscess after surgery [5]. In 11 non-randomized studies (623 patients), nine of which using NAS meshes, no post-surgical infection was detected [33,[36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45]. Six studies with NAS meshes reported post-surgical hyperthermia, meaning 3.15% out of 755 cases [46][47][48][49][50][51].…”

Place du matériel prothétique dans le traitement du prolapsus par voie vaginale

“…Les fréquences des plaies vésicales, urétrales et urétérales sont de 1,94, 1,6 et 1,55 % dans les études non randomisées, et [28,29]. Les études randomisées n'ont pas retrouvé de différence entre les techniques avec ou sans renfort pour ces complications.…”

“…Seul Paraiso rapporte la survenue d'un abcès pelvien dans les suites opératoires [6]. Dans 11 études non randomisées (soit 623) patientes), dont neuf portant sur des prothèses NRS, aucune complication infectieuse n'a été notée en période postopératoire [28,[31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40]. Six études portant sur des prothèses NRS rapportent une hyperthermie dans 3,15 % des cas en moyenne sur 755 patientes traitées [41][42][43][44][45][46].…”
