How Satisfied Are Women 6 Months after a Pessary Fitting for Pelvic Organ Prolapse?

Background: The non-surgical solution for Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) typically consists of a pessary fitting. We aimed to assess patient satisfaction and symptom improvement 6 months after a pessary fitting and to identify risk factors associated with pessary failure.

Methods: Six months after a pessary fitting, patient satisfaction was assessed by the PGII score; symptoms and quality of life were assessed using validated questionnaires (PFDI-20, ICIQ-SF, PISQ-12, USP, and PFIQ-7).

Multicentric infantile myofibromatosis: two perinatal cases.

Infantile myofibromatosis, the most common fibrous tumor of infancy, occurs in solitary, multiple, and generalized forms, with similar histology but different clinicopathologic and prognostic implications. This entity is a mesenchymal disorder characterized by the proliferation of fibrous tumors in the skin, muscles, viscera, bones, and subcutaneous tissues. Visceral lesions are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, generally within the first few months of life.
