ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Surgical correction is the most efficient treatment for stress urinary incontinence (SUI), and transobturator sling (TO) has optimal results. The high cost of commercially available sling kits makes it difficult the access in most Brazilian public health services. Hand-made polypropylene slings, on the other hand, have been previously reported. The aim of the present study was to compare the effectiveness and safety of commercial vs. hand-made polypropylene mesh slings. Data from 57 women who underwent consecutive TO sling surgery to treat SUI were pros- pectively collected between 2012 and 2014, and divided in two groups for further compa- rison. In Group-1, 31 women underwent surgery with commercial slings. In Group-2, 26 women underwent hand-made polypropylene slings. Women were compared according to epidemiological data, perioperative evaluation, quality of life, urodynamic study, cure and complication rates. Results were objectively (stress test with Valsalva maneuver, with at least 200mL vesical repletion) and subjectively evaluated by the Patient Global Impression of Improvement(PGI-I), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and ICIQ-SF. Success was defined as PGI-I, VAS and negative stress test. Group-1 (n=31) and Group-2 (n=26) had a mean age of 60 vs. 58years (p=0.386). All de- mographic data were similar. The mean VLPP was 75.6cmH2O vs. 76.6cmH2O (p=0.88). The mean follow-up was 24.3 vs. 21.5months (p=0.96). Success rates were 74.2% vs. 80.2% (p=0.556), with ICIQ-SF variation of 12.6 vs.15.5 (p=0.139) and PGI-I of 71% vs. 80% (p=0.225). There was only one major complication (urethrovaginal fistula in Group-1). In conclusion, handmade and commercial slings have similar effectiveness and safety. The manufacture technique has important key-points stated in the present manuscript.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Introduction In high stage vaginal prolapse, recurrence risk patients, anterior and apical defects need to be addressed in the same procedure. The pre-molded commercial mesh kits are expensive and not always available. Alternative effective and safe treatment ways, with lower costs are desirable. Objective To present long term follow-up of patients treated with a homemade mesh shape to correct high stage prolapses. Materials and Methods We describe prospectively 18 patients with anterior and apical vaginal prolapses, stages III and IV, repaired using this specific design of mesh. All patients were submitted to pre-operative clinical evaluation and urodynamics. Prolapse was classified using the pelvic organ prolapse quantification (POP-Q). Intervention Prolapse surgery, using a six arms prolene mesh, through a single anterior vaginal incision. Outcome Measurements: POP-Q, patients satisfaction, descriptive statistical analysis. Results Between February 2009 and Oct 2010, 18 consecutive women underwent the above-mentioned surgery. Mean age was 68 years. At a mean follow-up of .,4 years (5 to 5.8 years), 16 (89%) patients were continent, mean Ba point came from +4.7cm to - 2.5cm, mean C point from +2.8cm to -6.6cm and mean Bp point from +1.3 to -1.7cm. There were two (11%) objective failures, but all the patients were considered success subjectively. There were two cases of mesh vaginal extrusion. Conclusions The homemade six arms prolene mesh allows concomitant correction of anterior and apical prolapses, through a single anterior vaginal incision, being an effective, safe and affordable treatment option when mesh is needed.

ABSTRACT

Objetivos: O presente estudo teve por objetivo avaliar a eficácia de uma nova medicação tópica (EF028) em duas distintas apresentações (aerossol e creme) de forma comparativa com a medicação já existente, Andolba® (benzocaína, benzoxiquina, cloreto de benzecônio, mentol), e ao controle negativo (higienização), na eficácia analgésica em ferida após a episiotomia, diminuindo a necessidade de utilizar medicação sistêmica. Métodos: As 60 pacientes voluntárias submetidas ao parto via vaginal normal com a necessidade de realização de episiotomia foram divididas em quatro grupos para avaliar comparativamente a ação do produto EF028 (creme e aerossol), Andolba® e sabão neutro, na eficácia da redução da sintomatologia dolorosa a partir do uso diário, por duas vezes ao dia, durante sete dias. Avaliações clínicas e subjetivas da dor ocorreram diariamente até o 3º dia pós-operatório e no 7º dia pós-operatório. Resultados: Os resultados mostraram que os medicamentos promoveram redução da sintomatologia dolorosa e não houve diferença estatisticamente significativa (p<0,05) entre as apresentações do medicamento EF028 (creme e aerossol) e o Andolba® e os três produtos foram estatisticamente superiores (p<0,05) ao tratamento-controle. Conclusão: Os medicamentos avaliados: EF028 aerossol, EF028 creme e Andolba® apresentaram eficácia semelhante no alívio da sintomatologia dolorosa da região perineal no pós-operatório de episiotomia, podendo ser considerados como indicação terapêutica para o pós-operatório de episiotomias.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Comparar o uso de tela de polipropileno e correção sitio-específica no tratamento cirúrgico do prolapso vaginal anterior. MÉTODOS: Estudo prospectivo randômico comparativo em que foram operadas 32 pacientes com idades entre 50 e 75 anos, que apresentavam prolapso vaginal anterior estádio III ou IV, ou recidivado. A estática pélvica foi avaliada segundo as recomendações da International Continence Society (ICS), o sistema POP-Q e pelo Índice de Quantificação de Prolapso (POP-Q-I) Absoluto e Relativo. Para o rastreamento da incontinência urinária de esforço oculta todas as pacientes, sintomáticas ou não, foram submetidas a estudo urodinâmico em posição semi-ginecológica e semi-sentada, com redução do prolapso com pinça de Cheron. Registrou-se o tempo cirúrgico, o volume de sangramento intra-operatório e as complicações intra e pós-operatórias. O tempo de seguimento médio do estudo foi de 8,5 meses. RESULTADOS: Em relação aos resultados anatômicos ocorreu melhores resultados com a utilização de tela de polipropileno sobre o reparo sitio-específico. Em relação à morbidade cirúrgica, observou-se menor tempo cirúrgico no grupo em que utilizou-se tela. CONCLUSÃO: Houve superioridade dos resultados anatômicos obtidos com a utilização de tela de polipropileno sobre o reparo sitio-específico.


OBJECTIVE: Pelvic organ prolapse is a disorder caused by the imbalance between the forces responsible for supporting the pelvic organs in their normal position and those that tend to expel them from the pelvis. Anterior vaginal wall prolapse, known as cystocele, is the most common form of prolapse and can result from lesions in different topographies of the endopelvic fascia. Currently, a woman has an 11 percent risk of being submitted to a surgical procedure to correct pelvic floor disorder, and a 29 percent chance of being reoperated due to failure in the first surgery. METHODS: A prospective randomized study was conducted to compare the use of polypropylene mesh with site-specific repair in the surgical treatment of anterior vaginal prolapse. Thirty-two patients aged between 50 and 75 years, who had previous vaginal prolapse at stage III or IV, or prolapse recurrence, were operated. Mean follow-up was 8.5 months. RESULTS: The results demonstrate the superiority of the anatomical outcomes with the use of polypropylene mesh over site-specific repair. Regarding surgical morbidity, shorter operative time was observed for the mesh group. CONCLUSION: The results observed in this study indicate the superiority of anatomical results obtained with the use of polypropylene mesh over site-specific repair.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Comparar os resultados anatômicos pós-operatórios de pacientes portadoras de prolapso uterino tratadas utilizando tela de polipropileno para correção dos defeitos do assoalho pélvico, comparando histerectomia vaginal com a preservação do útero. MÉTODO: Estudo randomizado com 31 mulheres portadoras de prolapso uterino estádio III ou IV (POP-Q) divididas em dois grupos: Grupo HV- 15 mulheres submetidas à histerectomia vaginal e reconstrução da anatomia do assoalho pélvico com tela de polipropileno tipo I (Nazca R-Promedon) e Grupo HP- 16 mulheres mulheres submetidas à reconstrução da anatomia do assoalho pélvico com tela de polipropileno tipo I (Nazca R-Promedon) preservando o útero. Raça, urgência miccional, constipação intestinal, dor sacral, sangramento e tempo de operação foram os parâmetros analisados. RESULTADOS: O tempo de seguimento médio foi de nove meses. Não se observou diferença entre os grupos nas complicações funcionais. O tempo cirúrgico foi 120 minutos para grupo HV versus 58.9 minutos para grupo HP ( p < 0.001 ) e o volume de perda sanguínea intraoperatória foi 120 mL no grupo HV versus 20 mL para grupo HP ( p < 0.001*). A taxa de sucesso objetivo foi 86.67 por cento para grupo HV e 75 por cento para grupo HP (p = 0,667). A taxa de erosão de tela foi 20 por cento (3/15) de extrusão no grupo HV versus 18,75 por cento (3/16) no grupo HP (p = 1,000). CONCLUSÃO: A correção cirúrgica do assoalho pélvico com telas nas portadoras de prolapso uterino apresentaram similaridade quer sendo ela feita com histeropexia quer com histerectomia. Contudo, o tempo cirúrgico e o volume da perda sanguínea foram significantemente maiores no grupo com histerectromia (HV). Operações vaginais com telas são procedimentos efetivos para a correção do prolapso.


OBJECTIVES: To compare surgical morbidity and time, as well as anatomical outcomes between vaginal histerectomy and uterine preservation in the treatment of uterine prolapse using a mesh kit (Nazca ®). METHODS: Randomized controled trial with 31 women with uterine prolapse POP-Q stage 3 or 4 pelvic organ prolapse who underwent vaginal surgery using tipe I polypropilene mesh (Nazca ®). They were randomized in two groups: group HV: hysterectomy and pelvic reconstruction floor with mesh (n=15); group HP: hysteropexy and pelvic reconstruction floor with mesh (n=16). Race, miccional urgency, intestinal constipation, sacral pain were assessed as well as the amount of bleeding and time of operation. RESULTS: Median follow-up was nine months on both groups. No difference was observed on complication rates and functional outcomes. Operation time was 120 minutes on group HV, versus 58.9 minutes on group HP (X² = 17.613*, p < 0.001 ) and intraoperative blood loss was 120 mL on group HV versus 20 mL on group HP (X² = 19.425*; p < 0.001). There was no differences in relationship to anatomical cure rates. Objective success rate was 86.67 percent to group HV and 75 percent to group HP (p=0,667) at nine months of follow-up. The anatomical results were similar between the two groups. CONCLUSION: The anatomic results between histeropexy and hysterectomy were similar. However, surgical time and blood loss were greater in group with histerectomies. The erosion rate were also similar. Vaginal surgery using mesh is an effective procedure for pelvic organ prolapse.

ABSTRACT

A histerectomia radical de Werthelm-Meigs foi o tratamento de escolha para o carcinoma invasivo do colo do útero estadio clínico lb e lla no Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de Säo Paulo no período de 1974 a 1993, quando 166 pacientes foram submetidas a esta forma de tratamento. Metástases linfonodal estava presente em 19 pacientes (11,3 por cento). A taxa de recidiva foi de 21 por cento nas pacientes com linfonodos positivo e 6 por cento nas linfonodo negativas. Complicaçöes ocorreram em 35 pacientes (20,83 por cento) e foram as seguintes: atonia vesical 9,52 por cento; fistulas 5,95 por cento; incontinencia urinária 4,76 por cento; estenose reteral 2,97 por cento; deiscência 2,38 por cento de linfedema de membros inferiores 1,19 por cento. Complicaçöes intra-operatórias ocorreram em 4,76 por cento e envolveram lesöes em bexiga ureter e grandes vasos
