Summary

The primary aim of this double-blind, randomized clinical trial (RCT) is to test the hypothesis that the addition of a standardized technique of interpositional synthetic polypropylene mesh placement improves the one-year outcome of vaginal reconstructive surgery for anterior prolapse compared to traditional vaginal reconstructive surgery without mesh.

Conditions

  • Vaginal Prolapse
  • Uterine Prolapse
  • Cystocele
  • Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Interventions

DEVICE

synthetic polypropylene mesh

Mesh used will be synthetic monofilament polypropylene. In this trial, patients in the experimental group will undergo interpositional multi-armed mesh placement using trocars for transobturator +/- ischioanal fossa placement at the level of the ischial spine.
