14. Advanced Posterior Vaginal Prolapse in an Adolescent
We report a case of a 14 year-old postmenarchal female who presented with vaginal pain and sensation of bulge with examination consistent with Stage III posterior predominant pelvic organ prolapse (POP). On exam under anesthesia, the posterior prolapse was noted to arise from significant redundant posterior vaginal soft tissue with multiple invaginations creating blind-ending pouches. Symptoms resolved after posterior colporrhaphy and resection of redundancy of posterior vaginal wall epithelium. (Source: Journal of Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology)

Active Compared With Passive Voiding Trials After Midurethral Sling Surgery: A Systematic Review
CONCLUSION: Passive trial of void had higher passing rates and lower discharge with catheter than active trial of void. Rates of most complications were low and similar between both groups, although passive trial of void had higher sling revisions.SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION: PROSPERO, CRD42022341318.PMID:38547487 | DOI:10.1097/AOG.0000000000005567 (Source: Obstetrics and Gynecology)

Quality-of-life improvements in patients after various surgical treatments for pelvic organ prolapse
ConclusionsSurgical treatment can significantly improve the quality of life of patients with POP. Colpocleisis may offer more advantages than those of other surgical procedures, and improvement was lower after TVM than after other procedures. (Source: Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics)

Does vaginal surgery for correction of pelvic organ prolapse improve urinary function? A prospective cohort study
ConclusionsPelvic organ prolapse surgery reduced the prevalence of urgency symptoms, and all questionnaires on urinary symptoms showed clinically significant improvement. Vaginal surgery for POP, even combined with MUS, significantly reduced PVR volume and improved urgency symptoms. (Source: International Urogynecology Journal)

Surgical correction of the genital hiatus at the time of sacrocolpopexy — a 7-year Markov analysis: a cost-effectiveness analysis
ConclusionsIn this 7-year Markov cost-effectiveness analysis, SCPwithout concurrent PR was the dominant strategy. SCP+PR costs more with lower effectiveness than SCP alone, due to higher surgical cost of SCP+PR and higher probability of dyspareunia after SCP+PR. (Source: International Urogynecology Journal)

Regional practice variation in pelvic organ prolapse surgery in Tuscany, Italy: a retrospective cohort study on administrative health data
Conclusions We found high and systematic variation in the access to POP surgical care in Tuscany and in quality and efficiency provided by hospitals. Such a variation may be mainly explained by user and provider preferences, which should be further explored. Also, supply-side factors may be involved, suggesting that wider and more uniform dissemination of robotic/laparoscopic procedures may reduce variation. (Source: BMJ Open)
