Abstract

Delivery of care for disorders of the female pelvic floor has changed significantly over the past two decades as the prevalence of the urinary incontinence and pelvic prolapse has increased and many new surgical techniques and devices have become available to the pelvic surgeon. The trend for surgical management of both stress incontinence and prolapse has been toward less invasive and morbid procedures that can be performed in outpatient settings. Unfortunately, early adoption of new technology can outpace clinical evidence for the efficacy and safety of certain devices. Recent actions by the US Food and Drug Administration regarding synthetic pelvic mesh reflect some of the controversy surrounding these newer technologies and highlight some of the major trends in patterns of care delivery.
