Female Pelvic Med Reconstr Surg
November 2017
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine whether there is a difference in pelvic floor symptoms between women who had obstetric anal sphincter injuries (OASIS) after an operative vaginal delivery versus those who had OASIS after a spontaneous delivery.
Methods: This was a secondary analysis of a prospective cohort study of women who sustained OASIS. Women were evaluated at 1 week postpartum and again at 12 weeks; at both of these visits, they completed a battery of validated questionnaires including a visual analog scale for pain, Patient Health Questionnaire 9 depression inventory, Fecal Incontinence Severity Index, Urogenital Distress Inventory 6, and Incontinence Impact Questionnaire 7.
Objective: The aim of the study was to review anatomic and surgical outcomes of robotic-assisted supracervical hysterectomy (RASCH) with concurrent sacrocolpopexy in the treatment of primary pelvic organ prolapse (POP) on initial adaption of this procedure.
Study Design: A retrospective chart review of patients undergoing RASCH with concurrent sacrocolpopexy between 2009 and 2012 was performed at a tertiary care academic institution, after initial adaption of this procedure. The primary outcome was change in vaginal support (assessed with the pelvic organ prolapse quantification [POP-Q]) at 3 months and 1 year postoperatively.
Objective: To estimate the incidence of and risk factors for wound complications in women who sustain obstetric anal sphincter injuries.
Methods: This was a prospective cohort study of women who sustained obstetric anal sphincter injuries during delivery of a full-term neonate between September 2011 and August 2013. Women were seen in the urogynecology clinic within 1 week of delivery and at 2, 6, and 12 weeks postpartum for perineal wound assessment.
