Východisko: Odběr anamnézy pomocí validovaných dotazníků neodmyslitelně patří k urogynekologickému vyšetření a sledování. Elektronická forma vyplňování dotazníků zjednodušuje sběr a zpracování dat, ale její použití může být náročné pro starší pacientky. Proto jsme vyvinuli systém MESS (Medical Electronic Survey System), který usnadňuje vyplňování dotazníků na tabletu, s důrazem na ochranu osobních údajů a uživatelskou přívětivost. Cíl: Porovnat spokojenost pacientek a jednoduchost použití mezi systémy Google Formuláře a MESS. Metodika: V prospektivní studii jsme analyzovali 193 dotazníků spokojenosti vyplněných pomocí Google Formuláře (2013–2015) a 329 dotazníků vyplněných pomocí MESS (2019–2020) spolu s ostatními dotazníky. Data byla vyhodnocena pomocí Fisherova exaktního testu či Wilcoxonova testu dle rozložení normality s hladinou významnosti p < 0,05. Výsledky: Elektronická forma vyplňování vyhovovala více pacientkám ve skupině MESS (84,5 vs. 65,6 %; p < 0,05). Vyplňování dotazníků elektronicky bylo snadné a velmi snadné pro 89,1 % s použitím MESS vs. 68,7 % pomocí Google Formuláře (p < 0,05). Nejvýraznější rozdíl byl pozorován u žen ve věku 60–69 let, kde 92,8 % pacientek vyplnilo dotazník samostatně s MESS oproti 36,9 % u Google Formuláře. U žen mladších 60 let nebyly rozdíly statisticky významné. Závěr: Systém MESS zefektivnil práci lékařů a zpřístupnil metodu elektronického vyplňování i starším pacientkám s poruchami pánevního dna.
Background: Evaluation of the quality of life using validated measures is an essential part of urogynecology examination and follow-up. Questionnaires administered in paper form generate paper waste or high demands for storage. Score calculation for some questionnaires may be demanding and time-consuming. The electronic format of completing questionnaires simplifies data collection and processing, but may be challenging for older patients. We developed a Medical Electronic Survey System (MESS), which facilitates completion of questionnaires on a tablet PC with an emphasis on data protection and user-friendliness for the elderly. Objective: To compare patient satisfaction and ease of use between Google Forms and MESS. Methods: This was a prospective cohort study comparing the answers to a satisfaction questionnaire completed using Google Forms (193 questionnaires between 2013–2015) and MESS (329 questionnaires between 2019–2020), along with other clinically used validated questionnaires. The answers to the questionnaire were compared using a Fisher’s Exact Test or a Wilcoxon Two Sample test, with a significance level of P < 0.05. Results: The electronic form of questionnaire completion suited more women in case of MESS (84.5 vs. 65.6%; P < 0.05). Completing questionnaires electronically was rated as easy or very easy by 89.1% of patients using MESS compared to 68.7% using Google Forms; P < 0.05. The electronic form of filling-in the questionnaires was very difficult or impossible especially for women using Google Forms (31 vs. 11%; P < 0.05). The major difference in questionnaire completion without any help was observed in the age group 60–69 years. No differences were observed in women under 60 years of age. All clinicians observed significant facilitation of their work. Conclusion: MESS has made the method of electronic questionnaire completion available even to elderly patients with pelvic floor disorders. It was positively accepted even by patients who are not familiar with any electronic devices.
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: It is reported that up to 60% of women would prefer to spare their uterus during pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair surgery. A reliable hysteropexy technique is therefore crucial. We aimed to describe the safety profile and initial core patient-reported and clinical outcomes of the Pilsner modification of laparoscopic mesh sacrohysterocolpopexy (PiMMS) in comparison with the laparoscopic sacrohysterocolpopexy technique (standard laparoscopic sacrohysterocolpopexy [sLSH]) previously used in our unit. METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study conducted in a single tertiary referral urogynecological center. All patients who underwent laparoscopic mesh sacrohysterocolpopexy between 1 January 2015, and 31 January 2022 were included in the study. Follow-up clinical, patient-reported, and imaging outcomes at the 12-month follow-up time point are presented. RESULTS: A total of 87 patients were included. Of these, 49 (56.3%) and 38 (43.7%) underwent sLSH and PiMMS respectively. Low numbers of perioperative complications were found in both groups with no mesh-related complications reported following PiMMS up to 12 months postoperatively. There were no apical compartment failures in either group. There were 8 (17.0%) vs 1 (2.7%) anterior compartment failures (Ba ≤ -1) in the sLSH and PiMMS groups respectively (p = 0.07) at 12 months. At the 1-year follow-up, 42 (89.4%) patients reported a Patient Global Impression of Improvement score of ≤ 2 in the sLSH groups compared with 35 (94.6%) patients following PiMMS. CONCLUSIONS: The PiMMS technique seems to have comparable safety profile and patient-reported outcomes with the sLSH technique. However, there is a trend toward reduced anterior compartment failures with this modification. The findings of this preliminary report need to be re-evaluated in a well-powered prospective study.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Although laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy is a recommended procedure for sexually active women, its full impact on sexual life remains underexplored. This study is aimed at comprehensively assessing changes in the quality of sexual life and the prevalence of dyspareunia in women 1 year after laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy. METHODS: This prospective observational study enrolled women undergoing laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy for pelvic organ prolapse stage≥ 2. Included were women with a completed Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire, IUGA Revised (PISQ-IR) questionnaire before and at 1 year after surgery. Individual domains of the PISQ-IR were compared separately. Dyspareunia, single summary PISQ-IR and PISQ-12 scores were additionally compared in sexually active women. Statistical analyses included paired signed rank, Wilcoxon, Median, Chi-squared, and Fisher tests (p < 0.05). RESULTS: Between February 2015 and December 2019, a total of 333 women were included. Mean age was 61.0 ± 11.2 and 141 (42%) reported being sexually active at baseline. At 12 months postoperatively, sexual activity was preserved in 110 (78%) of these women and an additional 26 women (14%) became sexually active. Both single-summary PISQ-IR (3.4 vs 3.6, p < 0.01) and PISQ-12 (36.0 vs 38.1, p < 0.01) scores increased significantly. The only variable that was associated with deteriorated scores postoperatively was a higher BMI. Individual domain analyses revealed significant improvement in condition-specific and condition-impact domains, except for the desire domain, which deteriorated. Prevalence of dyspareunia decreased post-surgery from 21.8% to 16.4%, p < 0.05. Newly sexually active women were older, had shorter vaginal length preoperatively, but lower PISQ-IR scores postoperatively than sexually inactive women pre- and postoperatively. Women ceasing sexual activity were older and had lower preoperative PISQ-IR scores than sexually active women pre- and postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS: Although the overall rate of sexually active women and sexual desire declined 12 months after sacrocolpopexy, overall sexual function scores improved and the prevalence of dyspareunia decreased.

Cíl: Porovnat subjektivní a objektivní výsledky laparoskopické sakrokolpopexe (LSC) ve vztahu k zavedení poševní tamponády. Metodika: Do studie bylo zařazeno 125 žen po LSC operovaných v letech 2013–2016 s kompletním ročním sledováním. Pacientky se současně provedenou totální hysterektomií byly vyřazeny ze studie. Základní charakteristiky pacientek, předoperační POP-Q, operační protokol a zpráva z roční kontroly byly vyhledány pomocí klinického informačního systému. Subjektivní výsledek operace byl hodnocen pomocí PGI-I (patient global impression of improvement). Objektivní výsledek operace byl hodnocen pomocí kompozitní definice selhání operace na základě POP-Q (Ba ≥ –1, C ≥ –3, Bp ≥ –1). Pacientky byly rozděleny do dvou souborů podle toho, zda měly zavedenou vaginální tamponádu po operaci, či nikoli. Statistické zpracování bylo provedeno pomocí c2, Wilcoxonovým a Fischerovým testem dle rozložení normality. Výsledky: Do studie bylo zařazeno celkem 125 žen; 48 (38,4 %) po LSC, 58 (46,4 %) s konkomitantní supracervikální hysterektomií a 19 (15,2 %) po sakrohysterokolpopexi. Vaginální tamponáda byla zavedena na 24–48 hod po operaci u 86 (68,8 %) žen. Skupiny se nelišily ve věku, indexu tělesné hmotnosti, kouření či předoperačním kvalifikačním prolapsu pánevních orgánů. Nezaznamenali jsme statisticky významné rozdíly v PGI-I rok po operaci. Rozdíl v objektivním selhání operace nedosáhl statistického významu, přestože více selhání bylo ve skupině bez tamponády (12,8 vs. 3,5 %; p = 0,09). Průměrná hodnota bodu C rok po operaci byla nižší ve skupině bez tamponády (–7 vs. –7,5; p < 0,009). Ve sledovaném souboru nebyla zaznamenána extruze síťky či závažná komplikace. Závěr: Vaginální tamponáda po LSC nejspíše nemá vliv na spokojenost pacientek po operaci, nicméně může být spojena s lepším anatomickým výsledkem operace po 1 roce. Výsledky studie je třeba potvrdit podrobnějším prospektivním zhodnocením.
Objective: To compare the subjective and objective results of laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (LSC) with and without the introduction of a vaginal packing one year after surgery. Methodology: This is a retrospective cohort study of 125 women after laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy operated on in 2013–2016 with complete annual follow-up. Patients with a total hysterectomy were excluded from the study. Basic patient characteristics, preoperative POP-Q and surgery data were collected. The subjective outcome of the surgery was assessed using the PGI-I (patient global impression of improvement). The anatomic outcome of the surgery was evaluated using the composite definition of surgical failure based on POP-Q (Ba ≥ –1, C ≥ –3, Bp ≥ –1). Patients were divided into two groups according to whether or not they had vaginal packing after surgery. Statistical analysis was performed using c2, Wilcoxon and Fischer test according to the distribution of normality. Results: A total of 125 women were enrolled in the study; 48 (38.4%) after LSC, 58 (46.4%) with concomitant supracervical hysterectomy and 19 (15.2%) after sacrohysterocolpopexy. Vaginal packing was introduced for 24–48 hours after surgery in 86 (68.8%) women. The groups did not differ in age, body mass index, smoking or preoperative pelvic organ prolapse quantification system. We did not observe statistically significant differences in PGI-I first year after surgery. The difference in anatomic surgical failure did not reach statistical significance, although more failures were observed in the group without packing (12.8 vs. 3.5%; P = 0.09). The mean C-point value one year after surgery was lower in the non-tamponade group (–7 vs. –7.5; P < 0.009). No mesh extrusion or serious complications were recorded in the monitored group. Conclusion: Vaginal packing after LSC probably does not affect patient satisfaction after surgery, however, it may be associated with better anatomical outcome one year after the surgery. The results of the study must be confirmed by a more detailed prospective evaluation.
Východiska: Současné operační postupy umožňují zachování dělohy při operaci prolapsu pánevních orgánů (POP), nicméně nesnižují onkogynekologické riziko. Cíl: Cílem studie bylo zhodnotit úspěšnost ultrazvuku v záchytu nepředpokládaných děložních a adnexálních patologií u žen referovaných k POP operaci. Dále zhodnotit dodatečný přínos expertního onkogynekologického ultrazvuku. Soubor a metodika: Do studie jsme zařadili všechny ženy po hysterektomii s adnexektomií, či bez adnexektomie v rámci operace POP na Gynekologicko-porodnické klinice FN Plzeň v letech 2013–2018, u kterých byl proveden předoperační ultrazvuk (USG). Ženy s opakovaným postmenopauzálním krvácením, abnormální cervikální cytologií, užívající tamoxifen či ženy s předem diagnostikovaným patologickým nálezem na děloze či adnexech byly vyřazeny. Výsledky: Do studie bylo zařazeno 289 žen – 157 (54,3 %) expertní USG vs. 132 (45,7 %) neexpertní USG. Abnormální sonografické nálezy byly popsány v jednom případě na cervixu (neexpertní USG), na endometriu ve 30 (10,4 %) případech – 13 (8,3 %) expertní vs. 17 (12,9 %) neexpertní USG, na adnexech ve třech (2,3 %) případech (vždy neexpertní USG), na myometriu nebylo žádné podezření z malignity. Ultrasonografické vyšetření bylo falešně negativní ve čtyřech (1,4 %) případech – dva (1,3 %) expertní vs. dva (1,5 %) neexpertní USG. Naopak falešně pozitivní bylo USG vyšetření ve 34 (11,8 %) případech – 13 (8,3 %) expertní vs. 21 (15,9 %) neexpertní USG. Závěr: Riziko nepředpokládaných patologických nálezů na děloze či adnexech při POP rekonstrukční operaci je 1,4 %. Shoda ultrazvuku s histologickým benigním, abnormálním či maligním vyšetřením je 87,2 %. Provedení expertního USG snižuje počet falešně pozitivních abnormálních nálezů, ale nezvyšuje úspěšnost záchytu patologií.
Objective: Current urogynaecology practice allows preservation of the uterus in pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgery, thus not reducing oncologic risk. Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound (USG) in diagnosing unexpected uterine and adnexal pathologies in women referred for POP. Furthermore, the benefit of USG examination by a specialist in gynaecology-oncology ultrasound was assessed. Materials and methods: All women after a hysterectomy with or without adnexectomy in the course of a POP surgery at our tertiary centre in 2013–2018 with preoperative USG were enrolled in the study. Women with recurrent uterine bleeding, abnormal cytology, using tamoxifen, or women with already diagnosed uterine or adnexal pathology were excluded. Results: 289 women were enrolled in the study – 157 (54.3%) expert USG vs. 132 (45.7%) non-expert USG. Abnormal findings were observed on the cervix in one case (non-expert USG), the endometrium 30 (10.4%) cases – 13 (8.3%) expert vs. 17 (12.9%) non-expert USG, the adnexa three (2.3%) cases (all non-expert USG), and no suspicion of malignancy on myometrium was observed. USG was false negative in four (1.4%) cases – two (1.3%) expert vs. two (1.5%) non-expert USG. Conversely, the examination was false positive in 34 (11.8%) cases – 13 (8.3%) expert vs. 21 (15.9%) non-expert USG. Conclusion: The risk of unexpected uterine or adnexal pathologies in POP surgery was 1.4%. The agreement between USG and histopathological benign, abnormal or malign findings was 87.2%. A sonographer specialized in oncologic sonography is able to reduce the number of false positive findings; however, this does not increase the sensitivity of the ultrasound.
BACKGROUND: Abdominal and laparoscopic sacro-colpopexy (LSC) is considered the standard surgical option for the management of a symptomatic apical pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Women who have their uterus, and for whom an LSC is indicated, can have a laparoscopic sacro-hysteropexy (LSH), a laparoscopic supra-cervical hysterectomy and laparoscopic sacro-cervicopexy (LSCH + LSC) or a total laparoscopic hysterectomy and laparoscopic sacro-colpopexy (TLH + LSC). The main aim of this study was to compare clinical and patient reported outcomes of uterine sparing versus concomitant hysterectomy LSC procedures. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of clinical, imaging and patient reported outcomes at baseline, 3 and 12 months after LSH versus either LSCH + LSC or TLH + LSC between January 2015 and January 2019 in a tertiary referral urogynecology center in Pilsen, the Czech Republic. RESULTS: In total, 294 women were included in this analysis (LSH n = 43, LSCH + LSC n = 208 and TLH + LSC n = 43). There were no differences in the incidence of perioperative injuries and complications. There were no statistically significant differences between the concomitant hysterectomy and the uterine sparing groups in any of the operative, clinical or patient reported outcomes except for a significantly lower anterior compartment failure rate (p = 0.017) and higher optimal mesh placement rate at 12 months in women who had concomitant hysterectomy procedures (p = 0.006). CONCLUSION: LSH seems to be associated with higher incidence of anterior compartment failures and suboptimal mesh placement based on postoperative imaging techniques compared to LSC with concomitant hysterectomy.

STUDY OBJECTIVES: The primary aim of this study was to assess the clinical feasibility of a policy where laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (LSC) is the default procedure for the management of a significant apical pelvic organ prolapse (a-POP). As a secondary aim, we wanted to evaluate LSC outcomes in relation to women's preoperative assessment of their surgical fitness using the American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status (ASA-PS) categorization. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: A university affiliated urogynecology center. METHODS: All women with symptomatic a-POP (C ≥ -1) who attended the urogynecology clinic between the 1st of January and the 31st of December 2016 and had their surgery by the 31st of May 2017 were included in the study. In our unit, routine follow-up appointments are arranged at 3 and 12 months post LSC. INTERVENTIONS: Perioperative and mesh-related complications were assessed based on the Dindo-Clavien and IUGA/ICS classifications respectively. The preoperative outcome measures included Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q) stage, Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory (PFDI) and ASA-PS score. At follow-up women were asked to complete a PFDI, Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I), had their POP-Q staging and ultrasonographic assessment of mesh position and placement. The above measures are routinely collected as part of our standard practice. A preoperative ASA-PS score of <3 was used as a cut-off to dichotomies participants into low and high risk. MAIN RESULTS: A total of 220 women attended our center during the study period because of POP. Of these, 146 women were diagnosed with a significant a-POP and 142 (97.2 %) women opted for a surgical repair. Of the 142 women, 128 (90.1 %) were deemed suitable for a type of LSC and 121 had their surgery before the 31st of May 2017. There were no statistically significant differences in any of our collected perioperative, clinical, patient reported or ultrasonographic outcome measures when comparing women with ASA-PS scores of <3 or ≥3. CONCLUSION: In a specialized urogynecology healthcare setting, it is feasible and safe to rely on LSC as the mainstay surgical procedure for the repair of a significant a-POP. However, it is imperative to ensure that technical skills and equipment requirements are fulfilled and maintained.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to explore the personal views of female gynecologists regarding the management of POP with a particular focus on the issue of uterine sparing surgery. METHODS: A questionnaire based survey of practicing female gynecologists in the Czech Republic, Slovenia and Slovakia. RESULTS: A total of 140 female gynecologists from 81 units responded to our questionnaire. The majority of respondents stated they would rely on a urogynecologist to aid them with their choice of POP management options. The most preferred options for POP management were sacrocolpopexy and physiotherapy. Almost 2/3 of respondents opted for a hysterectomy together with POP surgery, if they were menopausal, even if the anatomical outcome was similar to uterine sparing POP surgery. Moreover, 81.4% of respondents, who initially opted for a uterine sparing procedure, changed their mind if the anatomical success of POP surgery with concomitant hysterectomy was superior. Discussing uterine cancer risk in relation to other organs had a less significant impact on their choices. CONCLUSIONS: The majority of female gynecologists in our study opted for hysterectomy if they were postmenopausal at the time of POP surgery. However, variation in information provision had an impact on their choice.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Sacrocolpopexy is the preferred contemporary approach to managing significant apical pelvic organ prolapse. Obesity is an established risk factor for several surgical procedures and can have a negative impact on outcomes. Our goal was to evaluate the impact of BMI on the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy in women with pelvic organ prolapse. METHODS: A single-center retrospective observational study of women undergoing laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2017. RESULTS: We found 299 procedures: 82 (27.4%), 147 (49.2%) and 70 (23.4%) in women with BMI <25 (normal weight), BMI ≥ 25 - < 30 (overweight) and BMI ≥ 30 (obese), respectively. Perioperative and early postoperative complications were generally low and not statistically significantly different between the groups. At 12 months postoperatively, 81 (98.8%), 136 (92.5%) and 62 (88.6%) normal-weight, overweight and obese women attended their follow-up, respectively. All obese women attending the follow-up scored an overall Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) of ≤ 3. The Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory (PFDI) scores showed a significant improvement in all domains and were similar between the study groups. In total, there was one (0.4%) anatomical apical compartment failure, three (1.1%) anterior compartment failures and two (0.7%) posterior compartment failures with no significant differences between the groups. Similarly, there were no differences in functional outcomes or mesh position as assessed by ultrasound. CONCLUSIONS: There were no differences in surgical, short- and long-term outcomes of laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy for pelvic organ prolapse in obese compared with non-obese women.
