The Remeex re-adjustable sling provides a good cure rate for rSUI and ISD at long-term follow-up. The complications rate is acceptable since most complications are clavien II. The ability to re-adjust the sling tension during the follow-up allowed us to achieve cure for recurrence after the initial procedure, and to relieve obstruction in every case attempted.

Introduction: Our aim was to assess the efficacy and complications of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) correction with transvaginal mesh (TVM). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively assessed patients who had undergone a repair of an apical (primary or recurrent) or recurrent POP using TVM in our department since 2007. Meshes used were Prolift®, Elevate®, and Surelift®. Satisfaction with surgery was assessed on a 0–10 scale. Results: A total of 83 patients were included (33 Prolift®, 36 Elevate®, 14 Surelift®), with a mean age of 67.8 ± 9.7 years. Eighteen (21.6%) patients underwent a recurrent POP correction. Follow-up was 49 ± 34 months. Twelve (14.4%) symptomatic recurrences were identified, 3 of which required further surgery. Satisfaction was 8.7. Four (4.8%) vaginal exposures were detected, 2 of which required partial mesh removal. Three (3.6%) cases of dyspareunia and 1 (1.2%) case of mild pelvic pain were reported, which did not require further treatment. Conclusion: The use of TVM for apical or recurrent POP repair is effective and is associated with a high satisfaction rate while complications are infrequent.
