To evaluate pregnancy outcomes, complications and neonatal outcomes in women who had previously undergone uterine arterial embolization. A retrospective study of 187 patients treated with embolization for symptomatic fibroids between 2005-2008 was performed. Uterine performed using polyvinyl alcohol particles (500-900 μm diameter). Pregnancies were identified screening questionnaires the database. There 15 spontaneous pregnancies. Of these, 12.5% miscarriages (n = 2), 87.5% successful live...
The aim of the study was to compare efficacy and safety transvaginal trocar-guided polypropylene mesh insertion with traditional colporrhaphy for treatment anterior vaginal wall prolapse. This is a randomized controlled trial in which women advanced prolapse, at least stage II Ba ≥ +1 cm according Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q) classification, were randomly assigned have either (n = 39) or repair using 40). primary outcome objective cure rate compartment (point Ba) assessed...
Introduction: Functional Rhinoseptoplasty (FRS) is a surgical procedure with both functional and aesthetic impacts, affecting patients' quality of life. The influence non-surgical factors on FRS outcomes remains debated topic in the literature. Rhinoplasty Outcome Evaluation (ROE) questionnaire useful tool for assessing patients’ satisfaction once submitted to this surgery. Objectives: To evaluate subjective impact long-term FRS. Materials Methods: authors conducted retrospective study all...
Os sintomas do trato urinário feminino são inespecíficos e se faz necessário correta investigação clínica para estabelecer o diagnóstico da incontinência urinária. Tal avaliação consiste em história clínica, questionário de qualidade vida, exame físico, diário miccional, teste absorvente estudo urodinâmico. O urodinâmico é extensão físico melhor avaliar a etiologia das queixas pacientes. objetivo deste artigo revisar os métodos utilizados clínico subsidiário
OBJETIVO: Comparar resultados das técnicas de "sling" retropúbico e transobturador para o tratamento mulheres com incontinência urinária esforço (IUE). MÉTODOS: Foram randomizadas 30 pacientes, sendo que 20 se submeteram ao sling 10 transobturador. As pacientes foram avaliadas antes após um, seis 12 meses, por meio história clínica, exame físico, questionário qualidade vida ("King's Health Questionnaire"), teste do absorvente avaliação urodinâmica. Os grupos homogêneos no pré-operatório....
Objective To compare the effects of two surgical procedures for correction anterior vaginal wall prolapse (AVWP) on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) using symptom questionnaires and quality life (QoL). Materials Methods One hundred women with Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification stage (POP-Q) ≥ 2 were randomly distributed in preoperatory groups. The first group (mesh) (n = 45) received a polypropylene mesh (PM) implant control 55) was submitted to colporraphy or without synthetic sling....

Materials Methods One hundred were randomly distributed two preoperatory groups. The first group (mesh) (n = 45) received a PM implant control 55) was submitted to colporraphy. Postoperatory follow-up done after 12 months. primary correction Ba point ≤ -2 POP-Q (Pelvic Organ Prolapse...
OBJECTIVE:The aim of this study was to compare female sexual function after surgical treatment anterior vaginal prolapse with either small intestine submucosa grafting or traditional colporrhaphy.METHODS: Subjects were randomly assigned, preoperatively, the graft (n = 29) colporrhaphy 27) group.Postoperative outcomes analyzed at 12 months.The Female Sexual Function Index questionnaire used assess function.Data compared independent samples a paired Student's...
Background: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a downward descent of pelvic organs that results in protrusions the vagina, uterus, or both. The cause this disorder likely to be multifactorial, attributable combination risk factors, especially connective tissue disorders. Our objective was characterize and quantify component extracellular matrix (ECM)—sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG)—in parametrium vaginal apex women with without uterine prolapse. Methods: Parametrium obtained from 42 who...
To evaluate the efficacy and outcomes of surgical treatment for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) in stages III IV by sacrospinous ligament fixation (SSLF) or uterosacral suspension (USLS) comparing anatomical subjective cure rates quality-of-life parameters (through version validated Portuguese language Prolapse Quality Life [P-QoL] questionnaire) under two definitions: genital Ba, Bp, C < -1 (stage I) ≤ 0 II). After we obtained approval from Ethics Committee (under CAAE 0833/06) registered study...
To evaluate glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in the parametrium, paraurethral tissue and vaginal apex postmenopausal women with uterine prolapse to effect of 30-day estrogen therapy these patients.Double-blind trial placebo 40 a control group 20 premenopausal without prolapse. Twenty formed second were treated for 30 days before hysterectomy. The third included who received 0.625 mg oral conjugated estrogens Samples obtained during surgery.Hyaluronic acid was predominant GAG detected, followed by...
