We conducted this study to examine the role of trigger point injections in females with chronic pelvic pain (CPP) at least 6 months duration and specific levator ani points.This prospective included 18 consecutive female patients CPP palpable points. Pain was evaluated before after injection on a Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Patient global satisfaction (PGS) cure rates (PGC) were also measured by VAS scale 0-100%. The points identified manually intravaginal palpation bilaterally. A mixture 10...
In a pivotal trial we evaluated the effectiveness and safety of Macroplastique(R) as minimally invasive endoscopic treatment for female stress urinary incontinence primarily due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency.A total 247 females with deficiency were randomized 1:1 treated transurethral injection Macroplastique or Contigen. The latter group served control. Repeat was allowed after 3-month followup. Effectiveness determined 12 months last using Stamey grade, pad weight Urinary Incontinence...
