Effects of Obesity on Urogynecologic Prolapse Surgery Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. Obstet Gynecol 2024; 143:539-549. [PMID: 38330397 DOI: 10.1097/aog.0000000000005525] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/21/2023] [Indexed: 02/10/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To systematically review the literature on outcomes of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgery in patients from various body mass index (BMI) categories to determine the association between obesity and surgical outcomes. DATA SOURCES PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases were searched from inception to April 12, 2022; ClinicalTrials.gov was searched in September 2022 (PROSPERO 2022 CRD42022326255). Randomized and nonrandomized studies of urogynecologic POP surgery outcomes were accepted in which categories of BMI or obesity were compared. METHODS OF STUDY SELECTION In total, 9,037 abstracts were screened; 759 abstracts were identified for full-text screening, and 31 articles were accepted for inclusion and data were extracted. TABULATION, INTEGRATION, AND RESULTS Studies were extracted for participant information, intervention, comparator, and outcomes, including subjective outcomes, objective outcomes, and complications. Outcomes were compared among obesity categories (eg, BMI 30-34.9, 35-40, higher than 40), and meta-analysis was performed among different surgical approaches. Individual studies reported varying results as to whether obesity affects surgical outcomes. By meta-analysis, obesity (BMI 30 or higher) is associated with an increased odds of objective prolapse recurrence after vaginal prolapse repair (odds ratio [OR] 1.38, 95% CI, 1.14-1.67) and after prolapse repair from any surgical approach (OR 1.31, 95% CI, 1.12-1.53) and with complications such as mesh exposure after both vaginal and laparoscopic POP repair (OR 2.10, 95% CI, 1.01-4.39). CONCLUSION Obesity is associated with increased likelihood of prolapse recurrence and mesh complications after POP repair. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION PROSPERO CRD42022326255.

Effect of new-style anterior and posterior vaginal wall repair combined with modified ischial spine fascia fixation on patients with pelvic organ prolapse and their postoperative quality of life. Front Surg 2022; 9:994615. [PMID: 36277291 PMCID: PMC9583659 DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2022.994615] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2022] [Accepted: 09/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective This study aims to explore the effect of new-style anterior and posterior vaginal wall repair combined with modified ischial spine fascia fixation on patients with pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and their postoperative quality of life. Methods A total of 88 patients with POP and elective surgery admitted to Anqing Hospital affiliated to Anhui Medical University from March 2018 to March 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to their surgical methods, patients were divided into an observation group [44 cases, all underwent new-style anterior and posterior vaginal wall repair combined with modified ischial spine fascia fixation (new-style APVR-modified ISFF)] and a control group [44 cases, all underwent traditional anterior and posterior vaginal wall repair combined with sacrospinous ligament fixation (traditional APVR- SLF)]. The perioperative indicators were compared between the two groups. The pelvic floor function, pelvic organ prolapse quantification (POP-Q) classification, and quality of life were observed before operation, 3 months after operation, and 6 months after operation. All patients were followed-up. Results Compared with the control group, the observation group had more advantages in intraoperative blood loss, operation time, urinary catheter indwelling time, postoperative anal exhaust time, and hospitalization time (P < 0.05). In terms of pelvic floor function, patients of both groups showed significant improvement at 3 months and 6 months after surgery (P < 0.05). In terms of quality of life, the two groups exhibited significant improvement at 6 months after surgery (P < 0.05). PFIQ-7, PFDI-20, and UDI-6P of the observational group were lower than those of the control group, while PISQ-12 was higher than that of the control group but all with no significant difference (P > 0.005). In addition, the total complication rate of the observation group was 2.27% (1/44), which was significantly lower than 22.73% (10/44) of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion New-style APVR-modified ISFF can effectively treat POP and improve the quality of life of such patients, with less postoperative complications and high safety.

[PMID: 35754366 PMCID: PMC9304435 DOI: 10.5468/ogs.22003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2021] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
The demand for uterine preservation in pelvic reconstructive surgery for uterovaginal prolapse is steadily increasing, and several procedures have been introduced, such as sacrospinous hysteropexy, uterosacral hysteropexy, sacrohysteropexy, and hysteropectopexy. However, the benefits and risks of uterine-preserving surgeries are not well understood. This review discusses the current evidence surrounding uterine-preserving surgery for uterovaginal prolapse repair. This may help surgeons and patients have a balanced discussion on how and on whom to perform uterine-preserving surgery.

Posterior repair versus no posterior repair for posterior vaginal wall prolapse resolved under simulated apical support at the time of native tissue apical suspension. Int Urogynecol J 2021; 32:2203-2209. [PMID: 33635351 DOI: 10.1007/s00192-021-04728-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2020] [Accepted: 02/06/2021] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of an adjuvant posterior repair (PR) on treatment outcomes of native tissue apical suspension. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 194 women who underwent iliococcygeus or uterosacral ligament suspension with or without PR for Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POPQ) stage 2-4 posterior vaginal wall prolapse that resolved under simulated preoperative apical support and who completed a 1-year follow-up. The primary outcome was composite surgical failure defined as the presence of vaginal bulge symptoms, descent of the vaginal apex more than one-third of the way into the vaginal canal (apical recurrence), anterior or posterior vaginal wall descent beyond the hymen (anterior or posterior recurrence), or retreatment for prolapse. Secondary outcomes included anatomical outcomes, perioperative outcomes, obstructed defecation, dyspareunia, and adverse events. RESULTS One hundred thirty women underwent concomitant PR, and 64 did not. Surgical failure rates were significantly higher in the group not receiving PR than in the group receiving PR (29.7% vs. 12.3%, p < 0.01). Anatomically, anterior and apical recurrence was more common in the group not receiving PR (p < 0.05). Concomitant PR was associated with a longer operating time and more blood loss (p < 0.01). However, there were few adverse events related to PR, and the rates of de novo obstructed defecation and dyspareunia were low in both groups, with no significant difference between the groups. CONCLUSION Concomitant PR at the time of native tissue apical suspension may reduce the recurrence of symptomatic anterior and apical prolapse without significant morbidity.

Comparison of treatment outcomes for native tissue repair and sacrocolpopexy as apical suspension procedures at the time of hysterectomy for uterine prolapse. Sci Rep 2021; 11:3119. [PMID: 33542432 PMCID: PMC7862299 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-82732-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2020] [Accepted: 01/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
Concomitant apical suspension should be performed at the time of hysterectomy for uterine prolapse to reduce the risk of recurrent prolapse. Native tissue repair (NTR) and sacrocolpopexy (SCP) are commonly used apical suspension procedures; however, it remains unclear which one is preferred. This study aimed to compare the treatment outcomes of NTR and SCP in terms of surgical failure, complication and reoperation rates. Surgical failure was defined as the presence of vaginal bulge symptoms, any prolapse beyond the hymen, or retreatment for prolapse. This retrospective cohort study included 523 patients who had undergone NTR (n = 272) or SCP (n = 251) along with hysterectomy for uterine prolapse and who had at least 4-month follow-up visits. During the median 3-year follow-up period, the surgical failure rate was higher in the NTR group (21.3% vs 6.4%, P < 0.01), with a low rate of retreatment in both groups. Overall complication rates were similar, but complications requiring surgical correction under anesthesia were more common in the SCP group (7.2% vs 0.4%, P < 0.01). As a result, the total reoperation rate was significantly higher in the SCP group (8.0% vs 2.6%, P = 0.02). Taken together, NTR may be a preferred option for apical suspension when hysterectomy is performed for uterine prolapse.

PLoS One 2019; 14:e0220895. [PMID: 31430319 PMCID: PMC6701833 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0220895] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2019] [Accepted: 07/25/2019] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To assess changes in clinical practice patterns after implementing diagnosis-related group (DRG) payment system in July 2013 and its effect on the quality of care for pelvic organ prolapse (POP). MATERIALS AND METHODS Using the 2011-2016 administrative database from National Health Insurance claim data, we reviewed medical information of 7362 patients who underwent hysterectomies for POP in Korean tertiary hospitals. We compared changes in several variables including length of stay, concomitant procedures, outpatient visits and readmission within 30 days after discharge, and retreatment for POP or stress urinary incontinence within postoperative 1 year before and after DRG system. RESULTS After the introduction of DRG system, the average length of stay decreased (7.74 ± 2.88 to 6.63 ± 2.18 days, p<0.001) without increasing readmission rates. However, the number of outpatient visits increased (2.78±2.33 to 2.98±2.47, p<0.001). Regarding concomitant procedures, the rates of colpopexy and midurethral slings significantly decreased (7.87% and 9.84% to 4.93% and 2.93%, respectively, all p<0.001). Even though there was no difference in the reoperation rates, pessary insertion for recurrent POP significantly increased after the introduction of DRG system (0.10% to 0.38%, p = 0.015). CONCLUSION The implementation of DRG in Korean tertiary hospitals has led to increase of outpatient visits and reduced surgical management for POP, which indicates that the uniform application of DRG influences the quality of care for POP patients.
