Microablative fractional CO2 laser has been proven to determine tissue remodeling with neoformation of collagen and elastic fibers on atrophic skin. The aim our study is evaluate the effects microablative postmenopausal women vulvovaginal atrophy using an ex vivo model.This a prospective cohort trial. Consecutive managed pelvic organ prolapse surgical operation were enrolled. After fascial plication, redundant vaginal edge one side was treated (SmartXide2; DEKA Laser, Florence, Italy). Five...
Incontinence has a greater detrimental effect on quality of life than other symptoms overactive bladder (OAB) and is often difficult to treat with antimuscarinic monotherapy. To evaluate the efficacy safety tolerability combination (solifenacin 5 mg mirabegron 50 mg) versus solifenacin or 10 in OAB patients remaining incontinent after 4 wk mg. despite daily during 4-wk single-blind run-in were randomised 1:1:1 double-blind for 12 wk. Patients receiving initiated 25 increasing week 4. The...
To assess the effect of microablative fractional CO2 laser (MFCO2-Laser) therapy on vaginal microenvironment postmenopausal women.Three therapies at monthly intervals were applied in women with moderate to severe symptoms genitourinary syndrome menopause, pH fluid >4.5 and superficial epithelial cells smear <5%. Vaginal values, fresh wet mount microscopy, Gram stain aerobic anaerobic cultures evaluated baseline 1 month after each subsequent therapy. Nugent score Hay-Ison criteria used...
Purpose This study aimed to clarify the efficacy of intravaginal CO2-laser treatment in postmenopausal women with genitourinary syndrome menopause (GSM).Materials and methods double-blind, randomized, sham-controlled trial included diagnosed GSM bothersome dryness dyspareunia. Treatment consisted three sessions. Active treatments (active group) were compared sham (sham primary endpoints being changes dyspareunia intensity, as assessed by 10-cm visual analog scale. Secondary follows: Female...
Abstract Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of non‐ablative vaginal Er:YAG laser device in stress urinary incontinence (SUI) treatment. Methods We conducted a multicenter blinded randomized sham‐controlled trial which women with urodynamic SUI were randomization to active arm using therapy, sham handpiece. Patients received two treatments 1 month apart. The primary outcomes measure was h pad weight test measured at 6 months. Secondary durability treatment success 12 months,...
Objective: To image the striated urethral sphincter (rhabdosphincter) using three-dimensional ultrasound and to compare its size in women with genuine stress incontinence continent controls. Methods: Women no previous continence or prolapse surgery had transvaginal sonography a 7.5-MHz mechanical sector endoprobe real-time facilities. Three perpendicular planes were displayed simultaneously on screen. Manipulation of stored images allowed detailed morphologic assessment urethra at different...
To assess the relationship between prolapse recurrence and some risk factors in a group of women submitted to reconstructive pelvic surgery.Women referred our Urogynaecological Units complaining symptoms were prospectively included. We excluded who affected by apical vaginal >stage I after previous hysterectomy. All had surgery with traditional techniques without using grafts. Each woman was reassessed at 1, 6, 12 months then yearly postoperatively. defined as descent >or=II stage involving...
