Introduction: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgery has variable results of recurrence and complications. We have aimed to analyze our outcomes in order to know the factors associated with anatomical and functional failure in POP surgery.
Material And Methods: A retrospective study of 69 patients who underwent POP surgery at our hospital was performed. Registered variables were: Age, BMI, number of deliveries, previous pelvic surgery, menopause, quality of life, urinary incontinence, associated frequency-urgency symptoms, high POP stage, vaginal compartments repaired, type of mesh, urethro-suspension and vaginal hysterectomy during POP surgery and its complications. Patients were evaluated at 1, 6 and 12 months post-surgery. The technique was considered as failed when relapse or mesh erosion occurred and when the patient is not satisfied or there was relapse. The sample is described, analyzing the relationship of the variables studied by univariate analysis (Chi square and Mann-Whitney U test) and a study was made of which variables may have predictive value in the failure of the repair (multiple logistic regression).
Results: Surgery failed in 17 patients during the follow-up at one year. BMI (29.6±2.03 vs 27.1±3.32), delivery number (3.4±0.71 vs. 2.8±1.88), menopause, frequency- urgency symptoms and number of vaginal compartments repaired were associated with treatment failure although only BMI, delivery number and frequency-urgency symptoms were defined as independent predictive variables when the logistic regression was carried out.
Conclusions: Overweightness-obesity, previous delivery number and frequency-urgency symptoms before surgery are factors associated to anatomical and functional failure after POP repair.

Background: Postoperative pneumonia (POP) predicts poor outcomes after lung surgery, especially for patients undergoing sleeve lobectomy. Fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) is frequently used in the treatment of POP for patients receiving sleeve lobectomy. This study aimed to assess the effect of prophylactic FOB on the incidence of POP in these patients.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and safety of transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) for performing adnexectomy and high uterosacral ligament suspension (HUSLS) after vaginal hysterectomy (VH) under epidural anesthesia.
Method: This was a retrospective case series of 42 women who underwent VH for stage II or greater apical prolapse according to pelvic organ prolapse quantification (POP-Q); however, adnexectomy could not performed and replace the vNOTES technique. The procedure continued with vNOTES adnexectomy and bilateral HUSLS under epidural anesthesia.

Importance: Literature surrounding conservative management of voiding dysfunction (VD) due to pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is limited.
Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of pessaries on VD in women with symptomatic POP.
Study Design: This was a retrospective case series of adult women who underwent a pessary fitting for POP and VD between January 2010 to December 2022 at 2 tertiary care centers.

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a women's health problem in both developed and developing countries. Various studies have found that the occurrence of POP is related to the supporting structures of the pelvic floor, including type III collagen levels. Most studies reported no correlation between collagen 3 alpha 1 (COL3A1) rs1800255 gene polymorphism and the occurrence of POP.

This study examined the molecular phenotypes of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) and vaginal fibroblasts (VFBs) and assessed whether pelvic organ prolapse (POP) affects their biological properties. We performed RNA sequencing of paired ASCs and VFBs from six patients with POP and six controls (CTRL). The transcriptomes of POP and CTRL in either ASCs or VFBs were compared (DESeq2, false discovery rate (FDR) < 0.
