The laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (LSC) is performed to support DeLancey's level I in patients with pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Although several studies have been conducted on the safety, objective and subjective outcomes of LSC, the specific effect of retroperitonealisation of mesh is unknown. This study is aimed at analysing the safety, objective ...

Surgical repair of pelvic organ prolapse often includes native tissue repair during which the patient's own vaginal connective tissue is used to achieve pelvic support. This method, based on plication and suspension often yields suboptimal anatomical outcomes, possibly due to inadequate healing of the vaginal connective tissue. We hypothesized that...

Posterior sacrospinous fixation (SSF) was first described by Amreich in 1950 and then modified by Richter in 1968. The main difficulty of this technique is the pararectal approach with dissection under visual guidance. Our aim was to teach young surgeons to use this alternative technique for apical suspension and to facilitate the pararectal approa...

To show the feasibility of tendon transplantation for minimally invasive pectopexy in pelvic organ prolapse repair. Patients with uterine or vaginal vault prolapse (POP-Q point C Stage 2-4) were offered laparoscopic pectopexy by means of autologous semitendinosus tendon transplantation. This paper presents a case series and describes the technique ...

BackgroundVarious terms have been used to describe vascular lesions in the intestine, including angiodysplasia, arteriovenous malformation, and telangiectasia. Such lesions are common in adults and are typified by angiodysplasia, a type of arteriovenous malformation. In contrast, these lesions are rarely seen in the pediatric population. Angiodyspl...

Cystocele recurrence remains a major challenge. Anterior colporrhaphy (AC) offers variable success rates that are mostly poorer than native-tissue repairs in other compartments. We compared outcomes after the use of Uphold™ transvaginal mesh kit and AC. A retrospective external audit including patients after Uphold™ mesh implantation (2010-2016) an...
