Abstract

The authors review the literature concerning all types of synthetics implants used in prolapse repair or the treatment of stress urinary incontinence, and analyze the mechanical properties of and the tolerance to the various products used. Various synthetic implants are also studied, including their advantages and disadvantages, as well as outcome following implantation and tolerance by the host, with respect to the type of product and the type of intervention. A review of current implant products demonstrated that the perfect product does not exist at present. The most promising of theses products for applications in transvaginal surgery to restore pelvic function appears to be the synthetic prostheses made predominantly of polypropylene, which offer mechanical properties of durability and elasticity. Their properties of resistance are undisputed, but it remains to be shown whether they are well tolerated when inserted by the vaginal route. The technical modalities for their use are still under evaluation, which should enable a better identification of the respective indications for these products in prolapse repair and treatment of urinary incontinence by the vaginal route.

Um herauszufinden, wie gut sich körperliche Übungen dafür eignen, primäre Dysmenorrhö zu lindern, hat eine Studiengruppe sechs verschiedene Verfahren untersucht. Alle wirkten, doch eine Methode war Favorit.

Mehr Brustkrebs, aber weniger andere gynäkologische Tumoren mit Levonorgestrel-IUS

04.06.2024 Levonorgestrel Nachrichten

Unter Frauen, die ein Levonorgestrel-freisetzendes intrauterines System (IUS) verwenden, ist die Brustkrebsrate um 13% erhöht. Dafür kommt es deutlich seltener zu Endometrium-, Zervix- und Ovarialkarzinomen.
