Brief Summary

Pelvic organ prolapse(POP) is a common health problem and has significant negative effects on woman's quality of life. Transvaginal mesh procedure is a durable reconstructive surgery, but the mesh kits are expensive for underdeveloped countries. Our preliminary trial showed that the use of self-tailored mesh had good success rate (91.8% at 1-year follow-up) and low complication rate. The trial is designed to compare self-tailored titanium-coated polypropylene mesh procedure with mesh-kit in the treatment of POP stage III-IV in terms of efficacy, safety and cost-effective .

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • surgical "success"

    Subjects will be considered a success if they meet the definitions of anatomic cure and deny vaginal bulging symptoms, and no additional treatment for prolapse(surgical or pessary use). Anatomic cure is defined as leading edge above the hymen (i.e Ba, C, Bp\<0 cm) Symptomatic cure is defined as the absence of vaginal bulge symptoms as indicated by a negative response question 3 of the pelvic floor distress inventory- 20 (PFDI-20): "Do you usually have a bulge or something falling out that you can see or feel in your vaginal area?

    up to 36 months after operation

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • anatomic outcomes

    up to 36 months after operation

  • symptomatic improvement using validated instruments(PFIQ-7)

    up to 36 months after operation

  • symptomatic improvement using validated instruments(PFDI-20)

    up to 36 months after operation

  • symptomatic improvement using validated instruments(PISQ-12)

    up to 36 months after operation

  • symptomatic improvement using patient global impression of change (PGI-C)

    up to 36 months after operation

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

self-cut mesh procedure

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

This procedure is transvaginal mesh implantation surgery for POP patients. Self-cut mesh procedure is an economic pelvic reconstructive surgical operation with use of specially designed puncture needles and self-cut mesh, which mainly provide anterior and apical compartments support, with posterior compartment reinforced by bridge technique repair. The mesh pieces used in this surgery was cut from a single piece of mesh material(TiLOOP 10\*15cm) which is much cheaper and readily available. Patients could have transvaginal hysterectomy concomitantly.

Procedure: pelvic floor reconstructive surgery

mesh-kit procedure

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

This procedure is transvaginal mesh implantation surgery for POP patients.Mesh-kit procedure is refered to pelvic floor reconstructive surgery with titanium-coated meshes kit(TiLOOP TOTAL6).Patients could have transvaginal hysterectomy concomitantly.

Procedure: pelvic floor reconstructive surgery

Eligibility Criteria

Age50 Years - 75 Years
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age:More than 50 years old with 3 years after menopause or more than 55 years old, but less than 75 years old.
  • Subject must have severe apical or anterior vaginal prolapse (stage III-IV), with moderate posterior vaginal prolapse(stage I-II). This is defined as ( C \> +1cm OR Ba \> +1cm, with Bp ≤+1cm by the POP-Q). This is the most common modality of multiple compartment POP in clinic.
  • Subject reports a bothersome bulge they can see or feel per PFDI-20, question 3, response of 2 or higher (i.e., responses of "somewhat", "moderately", or "quite a bit").
  • Desires transvaginal mesh treatment for primary or recurrent, symptomatic uterovaginal prolapse.
  • Concomitant hysterectomy when indicated. But concomitant anti-incontinence surgeries will not be enrolled.
  • Subject is willing and able to comply with the follow-up regimen.

You may not qualify if:

  • Subject is pregnant or intends to become pregnant in the future
  • Subject has an active or chronic systemic infection including any gynecologic infection, untreated urinary tract infection (UTI) or tissue necrosis
  • Subject has history of pelvic organ cancer (e.g. uterine, ovarian, bladder, colo-rectal or cervical)
  • Subject has had prior or is currently undergoing radiation, laser therapy, or chemotherapy in the pelvic area
  • Subject has taken systemic steroids (within the last month), or immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory treatment (within the last 3 months)
  • Subject has systemic connective tissue disease (e.g. scleroderma, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), Marfan syndrome, Ehlers Danlos, collagenosis, polymyositis, polymyalgia rheumatica)
  • Subject has chronic systemic pain that includes the pelvic area or chronic focal pain that involves the pelvis
  • Subject has uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (DM)
  • Subject has a known neurologic or medical condition affecting bladder function (e.g., multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury or stroke with residual neurologic deficit)
  • Subject has had previous prolapse repair with mesh in the target compartment
