NCT01614587

Brief Summary

The objective is to explore the genetic predisposition to early pelvic organ prolapse after adequate surgical repair by exploring the association between pelvic organ prolapse recurrences and certain polymorphisms.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • SNP microarray analysis from recurrent prolapse subjects and controls

    DNA will be evaluated by a variety of methods. For example, candidate polymorphisms may be evaluated using TaqMan SNP allelic discrimination assays which are based upon duplex real-time PCR. In addition, genome-wide SNP microarrays may be employed in order to perform a whole genome association study. Additional analysis such as DNA resequencing may also be required in order to identify causative polymorphisms linked to the newly associated SNPs. Other methods of DNA analysis such as next-generation sequencing may also be warranted.

    12 months post-operative, DNA will be collected

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Compare all peri-operative characteristics and demographics between groups

    12 months post-operative

Study Arms (2)

Cases

1. Early, unexplained recurrence (within six months of procedure) after Sacrocolpopexy 2. The recurrence required treatment (surgery or pessary)

Controls

1. Sacrocolpopexy during the same period 2. No recurrence, no reoperation, no retreatment to date (minimum of 12 months from surgery)
