Brief summary

This study is conducted in order to determinate the faisability of an intraoperative ultrasound to mesure the positioning of prostheses during laparoscopic promontofixation.

Detailed description

Genital prolapse is a very common functional pathology that affects 30% of women. The functional impact of prolapse is highly variable and may lead patients to consider surgery. Surgery for laparoscopic genital prolapse (laparoscopy) is a common practice. The placement of prostheses on the anterior and posterior walls of the vagina is sort of estimated, performed without any quality control . This technique is associated with a high rate of patient satisfaction (90% satisfaction), but a risk of anatomical recurrence in 20-30% of cases and a risk of reoperation for relapse in 3% of cases. It is likely that the lower the intervesico-vaginal prosthesis, the lower the risk of cystocele relapse is important.The postoperative ultrasound visualization of prostheses placed in promontofixation is possible: they appear hyperechoic. In particular, in anterior, where a prosthesis is placed between the vagina and the bladder, it is possible to verify that this prosthesis supports the entire bladder base.Thus, it may be possible to check the correct position of the prostheses intraoperatively. If studies were conducted postoperatively, to the best of our knowledge, no study has been conducted on the value of an intraoperative ultrasound control.

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTIntraoperative ultrasound and 2 months post-operative ultrasound ( ± 1 month)

An ultrasound of the position of the prosthesis during surgery, under general anesthesia, is performed. A follow-up visit will be carried out 2 months (± 1 month) after the surgery as part of the usual care. An ultrasound of the position of the prosthesis is performed without anesthesia, either as part of the treatment or as part of the research. This measurement is performed without the intraoperative measurement by an independent sonographer.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Measure the distance (in mm) between the most distal part of the anterior prosthesis and the bladder neck.at two months (± 1 month) of follow-upComparaison of intraoperative measurement to postoperative measurement

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Stage of prolapseuntil 2 months post-operativeEvaluate the stage of prolapse on clinical examination according to the International Continence Society (ICS) of Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification System (POP-Q) classification (points Ba, Bp, C, D)
Evaluate the symptoms with the PFDI-20 questionnaireduring 2 months post-operativeThe Pelvic Floor Disorders Inventory (PFDI-20) score : This is a questionnaire so that patients can answer questions about certain symptoms: intestines, bladder or pelvic
Evaluate patient satisfaction with the PGI-I questionnaire (1-7)until 2 months post-operativeThe Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) : The patient should check the box corresponding to the current state of her uro-gynecological problems compared to what they were before treatment
Evaluate the symptoms with the PFIQ-7 questionnaireduring 2 months post-operativeThe Pelvic Floor Impact Questionnaire (PFIQ-7) : describe how much les activities, relationships, or feelings have been affected by symptoms bladder, bowel, or vaginal or conditions over.
