Laparoscopic Pectopexy: An Effective Procedure for Pelvic Organ Prolapse with an Evident Improvement on Quality of Life.

It has been stated that the effectiveness of pectopexy method for the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is similar to sacrocolpopexy. We aimed to search the effects of pectopexy method to the quality of life, sexual function and urinary incontinence. Thirty-one patients who were operated for POP with the technique of laparoscopic pectouteropexy/pectocolpopexy between January 2016 and November 2017 were included the study.

Intermediate-term outcomes of laparoscopic pectopexy and vaginal sacrospinous fi xation: a comparative study.

Objective: To compare the intermediate-term follow-up results of laparoscopic pectopexy and vaginal sacrospinous fi xation procedures.

Materials And Methods: Forty-three women who had vaginal sacrospinous fixations (SSF) using Dr. Aksakal's Desta suture carrier and 36 women who had laparoscopic pectopexies were re-examined 7 to 43 months after surgery.

Soft-tissue masses: use of a scoring system in differentiation of benign and malignant lesions.

The purpose of this study was to show the qualitative and quantitative MRI characteristics of soft-tissue masses in differentiation of benign and malignant lesions. A total of 90 soft-tissue lesions were reviewed in this study. The scoring system presents a more objective diagnostic performance in the prediction of benign or malignant masses.
