Summary: This study outlined the development of Chinese pelvic floor surgeries related to pelvic organ prolapse over the past 14 years and found that the rate of synthetic mesh procedures increased while that of non-mesh procedures decreased significantly. The rate of transvaginal placement of surgical mesh procedures decreased while the rate of laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy procedures increased significantly.

Summary: This study is the first to address complications of vaginal mesh used for prolapse surgery alongside data from native tissue and biological xenograft. It demonstrates the complexity of assessing pain and shows that all types of prolapse surgery have low surgical morbidity and a low rate of severe complications.

Summary: This study critically evaluates the use of polypropylene (PP) pelvic mesh in the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse (POP), and proposes the use of advanced materials as an alternative to PP mesh. Results show that the physical properties of PP mesh, including its viscoelastic properties and lack of tissue integration, contribute to complications. The banning of PP mesh in multiple countries highlights the need for the development of alternative pelvic mesh materials.

Summary: This study compared the immune response between titanized and non-titanized meshes in pelvic organ prolapse surgeries. The results showed that titanized meshes led to decreased macrophage polarization and immune response compared to non-titanized meshes, which may explain the increased incidence of mesh erosion.

Summary: In recent decades, there has been extensive attention on the application of mesh for repairing pelvic floor defects. However, a large body of related literature has not been systematically summarized. This study aimed to summarize and visualize the literature on pelvic organ prolapse repair with mesh using bibliometrics. The findings showed that the reasonable application of mesh and avoiding mesh complications are still the most concerned topics in pelvic organ prolapse research.

Summary: This study compared the host response to delayed absorbable P4HB and a latest generation PP implant in a mouse implant infection model. The results showed that bacterial contamination negatively affected mesh integration for both P4HB and PP implants. Despite the larger surface area of P4HB implants, infection clearance was similarly delayed compared to PP implants. Additionally, collagen deposition was significantly increased around infected P4HB implants.

Summary: This study investigated the mechanical and biological impact of three different mesh implants on native tissues. It was found that one of the materials did not alter the mechanical behavior of the tissues, while the other two significantly increased rigidity and led to clinical complications. All meshes reduced the geometric lengthening of tissues under repetitive loads, suggesting that mechanical aspects may play a key role in the compatibility of mesh implants in vivo. One of the materials showed better support and adapted more properly to the physiological behavior of native tissues during an animal study.

Summary: Pelvic organ prolapse is a common condition that can significantly affect a patient's quality of life. Symptoms include vaginal bulge or pressure, as well as bladder, bowel, or sexual issues. Diagnosis is confirmed through physical examination, which identifies descent of different parts of the vagina. Treatment options range from observation for asymptomatic cases to conservative measures, pessary use, or surgical intervention for symptomatic cases.

Summary: Titanium-coated polypropylene (Ti-PP) mesh was developed to improve biocompatibility and protect against degradation. This study analyzed two explanted Ti-PP mesh samples using various material analysis techniques. The results provided evidence of bulk oxidation, surface degradation, and environmental stress cracking on the implanted Ti-PP meshes.

Summary: The study found significant improvement in overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms at 24 months postoperatively, regardless of the severity of pelvic organ prolapse. Factors such as high BMI and postoperative constipation were identified as significant variables associated with persistent OAB symptoms after surgery.

Summary: The study from the Austrian Sacrocolpopexy Registry showed that most patients underwent SCP laparoscopically, with significant variation in surgical techniques. Perioperative morbidity rate appears to be modest.

Summary: This study compared the outcomes of partial and complete excision of transvaginal polypropylene mesh from the pelvic walls of rats, showing that total mesh excision incites a host inflammatory response and transitory lower urinary tract dysfunction. Despite good outcomes after total excision, the invasiveness and surgical risk associated with repeated procedures should not be underestimated.

Summary: The study compared the incidence of serious complications and reoperations for pelvic organ prolapse after different types of repair surgeries, finding that native tissue vaginal repairs had the lowest risk of serious complications but the highest risk of reoperation for recurrence.

Summary: In this retrospective cohort study, patients undergoing combined pelvic organ prolapse and rectal prolapse surgery had a similar risk of <30-day postoperative complications compared with patients undergoing pelvic organ prolapse-only surgery. Furthermore, patients who underwent combined surgery had a similar risk of recurrent pelvic organ prolapse and subsequent pelvic organ prolapse surgery compared with patients who underwent pelvic organ prolapse-only surgery.

Summary: The study aims to verify the safety and effectiveness of vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) in early endometrial cancer staging. The results showed that vNOTES had comparable lymph node detection rates and perioperative outcomes to conventional laparoscopic surgery, with lower postoperative pain and shorter hospital stay.
