Abstract
The aim was to assess the efficacy of three-compartment pelvic organ prolapse (POP) vaginal repair using the InteXenA (R) biocompatible porcine dermal graft as compared to traditional colporrhaphy with sacrospinous ligament suspension. Preoperative, operative, postoperative and follow-up data were collected retrospectively. Objective recurrence was defined as POP quantification a parts per thousand yen stage II and subjective recurrence as a symptomatic bulge. Each group consisted of 63 patients. Surgery time was longer using InteXenA (R) (72 A +/- 24.5 vs 55 A +/- 23.5 min, p = 0.0002). Length of hospital stay (4.6 A +/- 1.6 vs 4.9 A +/- 2.1 days, p = 0.34) as well as duration of follow-up (37.1 vs 35.7 months, p = 0.45) were equivalent between the two groups. No case of mesh erosion or infection was noted. The objective (17% vs 8%, p = 0.12) and subjective recurrence rates (13% vs 5%, p = 0.12) between the two groups were not statistically different. InteXenA (R) was well tolerated but had similar efficacy to traditional colporrhaphy and sacrospinous ligament suspension.
