Study summary

A RCT study to compare traditional colporrhaphy versus polypropylene mesh in treatment of the anterior vaginal wall prolapse.

Read the detailed description

Seventy patients with greater anterior vaginal prolapse, whit stress incontinence or not, were randomly assigned to either colporrhaphy or polypropylene mesh repair( NAZCA TC™ POP REPAIR SYSTEM) . The primary outcome was recurrent anterior vaginal prolapse, and secondary outcomes were effects on quality of life and sexual symptom scores, operative time, length of hospitalization, and adverse events.

    The NAZCA TC™ POP REPAIR SYSTEM (polypropylene mesh repair),promedon™ , cordoba, argentina, is used to repair anterior vaginal prolapse by a transobturator and pre pubic approach . Helical needles are used to anchor graft to the pelvic sidewall at two points transobturator, the other two arms pre pubic needles is used. We designed this randomized control trial to compare the anatomic success rates, effect on quality of life and sexual symptom scores, and rates of adverse events of the procedure with polypropylene mesh with that of anterior colporrhaphy, with planned follow-up of 1 years.
