Clinical Effects of Surgical Repair with or Without Biological Mesh on Uterine Prolapse / 中国微创外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the different clinical effects of colpohysterectomy combined with anterior and posterior wall colporrhaphy with or without biological mesh for uterine prolapse.Methods From January 2010 to May 2015, colpohysterectomy combined with anterior and posterior wall colporrhaphy was performed in 106 cases of uterine prolapse, including 75 cases receiving biological mesh repair (experimental group) and 31 cases of non-biological mesh (control group).Clinical and surgical information of all patients was collected, and satistial analysis was done between the two groups.Results All the operations were accomplished successfully.There were no statistical differences in bleeding amount during operation [(34.5±7.3) ml vs.(32.1±4.9) ml, t=1.973, P=0.051], time to first flatus [(29.2±4.8) d vs.(30.2±5.3) d, t=-0.907, P=0.366], postoperative hospital stay [(6.1±1.5) d vs.(6.0±1.4) d, t=0.328, P=0.744], as well as the operative time [(91.4±3.4) min vs.(95.1±10.2) min, t=-1.970, P=0.051].At one year after surgery, in the experimental group there were 74 patients cured, 1 patient improved, and no invalid or recurrence case, while in the control group there were 27 patients cured, 1 patient improved, 3 cases of recurrence and no invalid case.The treatment effect of the experimental group was significant better than that of the control group (Z=-2.571, P=0.010).Conclusions Colpohysterectomy with anterior and posterior wall colporrhaphy with biological mesh can be selected for uterine prolapse patients without contraindications.The results of surgery are better with biological mesh, with low recurrence rate.
