Brief summary
The purpose of the proposed project is to report the clinical presentation, the subsequent surgical management and the outcome of a series of 20 patients with recurrent pelvic organ prolapse (POP) following implantation of synthetic mesh in the vagina for the treatment of POP (mesh-failure). This study is conducted to obtain a better understanding of the surgical management after vaginal mesh-failure that should be proposed. The hypothesis of this study is to evaluate and to assess the surgical treatment in women who underwent surgical correction for recurrent POP after initial treatment with synthetic mesh in the vagina for POP. For gynaecologist clear surigcal strategies are required to propose the surgical intervention that is most effection in this situation.
Interventions
The key research question is to assess and evaluate the surgical management and outcome of the applied surgical intervention in women with recurrent pelvic organ prolapse (POP) after initial treatment with synthetic mesh in the vagina for POP (mesh-failure). The applied surgical management will be assessed and evaluated. The key research question is the assessment of the surgical management which can vary from patient to patient depending on the previous surgery. Follow-up time is 6 weeks and 3 months postoperatively. The overall duration of this observational study will be 12 months.
