Continent women with advanced pelvic organ prolapse (POP) > 66 years, with DM or low MUCP and FUL values during preoperative urodynamic evaluation have higher risk of developing de novo SUI; therefore, we suggest counselling such women for concomitant PRS and anti-incontinent surgery.
Elevate(™) a offered lower incidence of mesh erosion and comparable results on anatomical POP correction; however, incidence of de novo SUI was high. There is an apparent lengthening of implanted Elevate® mesh sonographically.
Age, education level and ability to pay insurance significantly affect 12-month outcome of RVF. Surgery is the preferred option, while medical treatment should be used only for small rectovaginal fistulas or for patients not suitable for surgery and anesthesia. More support and assistance should be offered to those patients with unfavorable factors, such as old age, low education level and inability to afford insurance. All RVF secondary to obstetrical injury had a 100% favorable outcome compared with those secondary to surgery or malignancy. Women with suspected RVF should receive prompt and extensive evaluation to ensure immediate effective management and prevention of further serious complications.
