OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the results of grade IV cystocele repair by 4-corner bladder and bladder neck suspension technique, using prolene mesh.
METHODS
Thirty-one women with a median age of 61 years and severe anterior vaginal wall prolapse (grade IV cystocele) were treated by 4-corner bladder and
OBJECTIVE
We determine whether inguinal cystoceles, a type of extraperitoneal herniation of the bladder, are responsible for symptoms consistent with prostatism in men without bladder outlet obstruction.
METHODS
From January 1996 to February 1997 inguinal cystoceles were treated with surgical repair
Prostate cancer, bladder cancer, and pelvic floor weakness are among the most common diseases of the pelvis. Cardinal symptoms include painless macrohematuria in bladder cancer and urinary and fecal incontinence in pelvic floor weakness. Suspicion of prostate cancer currently is most frequently
By careful observation of the physical findings in the patient complaining of one of the disorders of genital prolapse, it should be possible to discern the origin of the symptoms and therefore to devise an appropriate treatment that would remedy by reconstruction all of the signs of anatomic
OBJECTIVE
Pelvic prolapse results from weakness or damage to the normal pelvic-support systems. The main support for the pelvic viscera is provided by the pelvic fascia, which is naturally reinforced by urethra-pelvic ligaments, cardinal ligaments and uterosacral ligaments. A polypropylene mesh
OBJECTIVE
Our objective was to determine the incidence of postoperative genital prolapse after the Burch colposuspension and to identify risk factors for the development of subsequent prolapse.
METHODS
The charts of 131 patients who had a Burch colposuspension performed by the senior author (S.L.S.)
Transvaginal small-bowel evisceration is rare. Only 47 case reports appear in the literature in English. Review of this literature shows that vaginal evisceration occurs mainly in women who are older, multiparous, and have undergone vaginal surgery. The immediate cause of evisceration is either
From March 1995 to March 1996 24 women aged 29-73 years with stress urinary incontinence underwent a modified vaginal wall sling procedure following videourodynamic evaluation. Of these 24, 2 had stress urinary loss due to urethral hypermobility (UH), 3 had intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) and
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether joint hypermobility is associated with pelvic organ prolapse.
METHODS
The case-control study was conducted from January to April 2011 and comprised 30 women with pelvic organ prolapse, stage > or = II and 30 controls with stages 0 and I with similar age and parity.
Surgical mesh is a metallic or polymeric screen intended to be implanted to reinforce soft tissue or bone where weakness exists. Surgical mesh has been used since the 1950s to repair abdominal hernias. In the 1970s, gynecologists began using surgical mesh products to indicate the repair of pelvic
BACKGROUND
About 15% of all hysterectomies are performed for pelvic organ prolapse, generally through the transvaginal approach. However, concomitant bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (BSO) is not always feasible through this approach, because the adnexae are sometimes inaccessible.
OBJECTIVE
To
