Abstract

Introduction and hypothesis

This study is about evaluating safety and potential risk factors for complications following pelvic organ prolapse repair with the GYNECARE PROLIFT system.

Methods

This is a prospective observational study (Canadian Task Force II-1) performed in a tertiary referral center. A total of 114 women with pelvic organ prolapse, POP-Q stage ≥2, underwent a pelvic floor repair that included Prolift.

Results

During a mean follow-up time of 7 months there were six procedure failures (5.3%) and 14 mesh exposures (12.3%), more commonly on the anterior vaginal wall. Age was inversely related to the risk of having late mesh exposure (p = 0.02) with an odds ratio of 1.99 (95% confidence interval 1.10–3.59) for each decrease of 10 years in age. Late mesh exposure was significantly more common in sexually active patients (p = 0.016).

Conclusions

Prolift repair has a high anatomical success rate. Young age and sexual activity are risk factors for mesh exposure.
