Pelvic Organ Prolapse, Surgical Mesh
Conditions
Brief summary
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a major health concern, affecting more than 30% of women. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of Uphold system and Perigee system in treating women with cystocele.
Detailed description
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a major health concern, affecting more than 30% of women. Traditional vaginal surgery with native tissue is associated with high recurrence rate. Thus, synthetic meshes were introduced into POP surgery and became the mainstream. Several transvaginal mesh procedures, such as Uphold system (Boston Scientific) and Perigee system (American Medical Systems Inc), have been used for cystocele repair. Perigee system is a trans-obturator four-arm mesh device attached to proximal and distal arcus tendineus fasciae pelvis. Nonetheless, Uphold system, is a single incised, two-arm anterior sacrospinous mesh fixation system. Both systems can be used for cystocele repair, despite Uphold system can be used for concomitant repair of apical prolapse. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of Uphold system and Perigee system in treating women with cystocele.
