DeLancey JO. Am J Obstet Gynecol May;192(5): Each year, pelvic floor dysfunction affects between 300,000 and 400,000 American women so severely that they require surgery. Approximately 30% of the operations performed are reoperations. The high prevalence of this problem indicates the need for preventive strategies, and the common occurrence of re-operation indicates the need for treatment improvement.. Long-term follow-up studies in pelvic floor dysfunction: the Holy Grail or a realistic aim? P Hilton Directorate of Women s Services, Royal Victoria Infirmary, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK Correspondence: Mr P Hilton, Directorate of Women s Services 3rd floor, Leazes Wing Royal Victoria Infirmary, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 4LP, UK. paul.hilton@ncl.ac.uk Accepted 23 September Published OnlineEarly 12 November Please cite this paper as: Hilton P. Long-term follow-up studies in pelvic floor dysfunction: the Holy Grail or a realistic aim?

PROLAPSE = PELVIC SUPPORT DEFECT Fig Potential sites of damage: 1. Midline defect (central part of PCF); 2. Paravaginal defect (collagenous glue and ATFP); 3. High cystocoele (attachment of PCF to cervical ring, transverse defect. Schematic 2D view from below. Perspective: looking into the anterior wall of the vagina.

Am J Obstet Gynecol 1961;81: PARA VAGINAL REPARATION «Stress incontinence is a very difficult symptom to relieve surgically» Home > Medical Devices > Medical Device Safety > Alerts and Notices (Medical Devices) Medical Devices FDA Safety Communication: UPDATE on Serious Complications Associated with Transvaginal Placement of Surgical Mesh for Pelvic Organ Prolapse Date Issued: July 13, 2011 Audience: A mesh procedure may put the patient at risk for requiring additional surgery or for the development of new complications. Removal of mesh due to mesh complications may involve multiple surgeries and significantly impair the patient s quality of life. Complete removal of mesh may not be possible and may not result in complete resolution of complications, including pain. Home > Medical Devices > Medical Device Safety > Alerts and Notices (Medical Devices) Medical Devices FDA Safety Communication: UPDATE on Serious Complications Associated with Transvaginal Placement of Surgical Mesh for Pelvic Organ Prolapse Date Issued: July 13, 2011 Audience: Mesh placed abdominally for POP repair may result in lower rates of mesh complications compared to transvaginal POP surgery with mesh.

12 The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists Women s Health Care Physicians COMMITTEE OPINION Number 513 December 2011 Committee on Gynecologic Practice This document reflects emerging clinical and scientific advances as of the date issued and is subject to change. The information should not be construed as dictating an exclusive course of treatment or procedure to be followed. Vaginal Placement of Synthetic Mesh for Pelvic Organ Prolapse Pelvic organ prolapse vaginal mesh repair should be reserved for high-risk individuals in whom the benefit of mesh placement may justify the risk, such as individuals with recurrent prolapse (particularly of the anterior compartment) or with medical comorbidities that preclude more invasive and lengthier open and endoscopic procedures. Surgeons placing vaginal mesh should undergo training specific to each device and have experience with reconstructive surgical procedures and a thorough understanding of pelvic anatomy. Impact of hospital and surgeon volumes on outcomes following pelvic reconstructive surgery in the United States. Sung VW, Rogers ML, Myers DL, Clark MA. Am J Obstet Gynecol. 2006, 195(6): HOSPITAL VOLUME SURGEON VOLUME LOW <92 <8 MEDIUM 92_ HIGH >185 >18 RESULTS: There were 310,759 women and 2986 hospitals. Women who had procedures at low-volume hospitals were 2.75 (95% CI ) times more likely to die and 1.63 (95% CI ) times more likely to have a nonroutine discharge, compared to those at highvolume hospitals.

Conclusions Laparoscopic treatment of genital prolapse: -is feasible, effective and reproductible with a small rate of complications after an adequate learning, -give excellent anatomical results, -should be applied with para-vaginal prosthetic reparation and routinely associated with a surgical treatment for stress incontinence -Knowledge of retroperitoneal anatomy, of ergonomic rules and laparoscopic sutures is mandatory
