Introduction: Laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (LSCP) is currently the gold standard surgical technique for treating pelvic prolapse. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy in ambulatory care.

Patients And Methods: This prospective study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of LSCP in women who visited the outpatient department of obstetrics and gynecology at the University Hospital of Strasbourg between July 2018 and December 2021.

Objective: Adenomyosis is a uterine pathology affecting an increasing number of women of childbearing age. Its diagnosis is based upon histology or imaging [ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)]. Several studies have investigated the impact of adenomyosis on obstetric complications, with its diagnosis based on clinical symptoms, ultrasound or composite criteria.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study aimed to assess the safety and effectiveness of cryoablation, a minimally invasive treatment, for patients with endometriosis located in the anterior abdominal wall, involving 29 patients over 6 months.
  • - Cryoablation was performed under imaging guidance, with nearly half of the procedures done under local anesthesia, resulting in minor complications and significant pain reduction from baseline to 6 months.
  • - At the 6-month follow-up, approximately 72% of patients experienced complete symptom relief, although some reported ongoing symptoms or had MRI-confirmed residual disease.

Introduction And Hypothesis: The objective was to describe the different laparoscopic and vaginal steps of sub-urethral infected mesh explantation as well as an unexpected and unusual complication: a sub-mucosal calcification on the sub-urethral segment of the sling that was not infiltrating the urethra.

Methods: This was carried out at our University Teaching Hospital of Strasbourg.

Results: We show the complete removal of an infected retropubic sling in a patient who had already undergone three previous surgeries without resolution of symptoms.

Article Synopsis
  • Women's preoperative hopes and fears about cystocele repair often differ from those of their surgeons, highlighting a gap in understanding.
  • A study analyzed responses from 265 women, revealing prevalent hopes related to prolapse repair (60%) and fears of prolapse relapse (38%).
  • Surgeons' expectations aligned closely with women's, but only 60% of women reported prolapse repair as a key expectation, suggesting the need for enhanced communication between patients and surgeons regarding individual concerns and goals.
