A woman's sexuality is a complex phenomenon involving several factors, among which age and health are the most important. However, other aspects are not negligible. The impact of pelvic organ prolapse on sexual function cannot be ignored, as the reported prevalence of pelvic organ prolapse in female population exceeds 50%. This article presents a systematic review of articles dealing with the impact of pelvic organ prolapse on female sexual function. Sexual dysfunction is common in women with pelvic organ prolapse, regardless of prolapse stage or the compartment affected. Estrogen therapy has no effect on sexuality in women with prolapse, while pelvic floor muscle training may provide some improvement. There is no evidence that conservative therapy using a pessary is associated with negative impact on sexual function. Native tissue repair tends to improve sexual function in general, except for posterior colporrhaphy, which was frequently associated with dyspareunia. No correlation between postoperative vaginal length and change in sexual function was identified. The impact of transvaginal mesh repair on sexuality remains unclear. In contrast, there is enough evidence proving that sacrocolpopexy significantly improves sexual function in women.

IMPORTANCE: This study compares the long-term efficacy and safety of an innovative single-incision sling (SIS) with the inside-out transobturator tape (TOT) sling in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence. OBJECTIVES: Women with urodynamic stress urinary incontinence were randomized to either SIS or TOT groups and followed up for 4 years. The primary outcome was objective cure defined with a negative cough stress test result. Secondary outcomes involved subjective cure reported via patient's satisfaction scale, surgery complications, postoperative de novo urgency, and patient's life quality. STUDY DESIGN: This is a randomized noninferiority controlled trial. RESULTS: A total of 168 women were randomized (84 in both groups). After 4-year follow-up, 130 patients were analyzed (66 in the SIS group and 64 in the TOT group). The objective (86.4% vs 84.4%; risk difference [95% confidence interval], 0.020 [-0.101 to 0.141]; P = 0.807) and subjective cure rates (83.3% vs 81.3%; risk difference [95% confidence interval], 0.020 [-0.111 to 0.151]; P = 0.821) were similar with the SIS and TOT groups. Both procedures were associated with low complication rates. Repeated surgery rates were 7.6% in the SIS group and 6.3% in the TOT groups. The mesh exposure rate was 1.5% for the SIS group and 3.1% for the TOT group. Incidence of de novo urgency did not vary between TOT and SIS patients. Both groups registered significant life quality improvement. CONCLUSION: After long-term follow-up, anti-incontinence SIS surgery proved noninferior to the inside-out TOT procedure in terms of objective and subjective cure rates.

We aimed to evaluate women's sexual function before and after pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgery utilising light transvaginal mesh after a prior hysterectomy. Only sexually active women with recurrent cystocele stage 3-4 according to POP-Q, who had previously undergone vaginal hysterectomy with anterior native tissue repair without apical fixation, were enrolled in the study. Women with previous mesh implant POP surgery, persistent vaginal infection or pelvic inflammatory disease were excluded. All patients were surgically treated between 2012 and 2015 using single-incision transvaginal mesh Calistar A. Sexual function was evaluated before a surgery and two years postoperatively. The assessment was accomplished via the standardised validated Czech translation of PISQ-12SF questionnaire. For each patient, age, BMI and parity were monitored. Out of all (89) eligible patients, 48 patients met inclusion criteria and were subsequently enrolled in our study. Two years postoperatively, 31 women (79.5%) improved their PISQ-12 score; five (12.8%) had equivalent scores, and three patients (7.7%) reported lower scores. Overall PISQ-12 score was 37.1 ± 2.6 postoperatively with a 2.9 ± 2.3 statistically significant positive difference compared to the score preceding surgery. The majority of patients undergoing surgery using Calistar A experienced a significant improvement in sexual function.IMPACT STATEMENTWhat is already known on this subject? Pelvic organ prolapse has a significant impact on women's sexual functioning in an adverse manner. Mesh implant repair is associated with lower rates of prolapse awareness and prolapse re-operation; however, it is linked with safety concerns. One of these concerns is the negative impact on women's sexual function. Evaluative study results following sexual function among women with mesh implant transvaginal repair are contradictory.What do the results of this study add? The results showed, that contrary to finding some of the previous studies, transvaginal mesh implant use could benefit patients with previous native tissue POP surgery failure with a low risk of sexual function deterioration.What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research? The study provides clinical data for vaginal mesh implants on women's sexual function in the mid-term outcome. These data can be crucial for selecting the right POP surgical technique and evaluating its benefits and risks.

OBJECTIVE: Sperm cryopreservation before gonadotoxic treatment is the basic and mos teffective method of preserving reproduction, which can be used during adolescence. The communication summarizes 26 years of experience in the operation of an oncological sperm bank, analyzes spermiograms of oncological patients, assesses the relationship between sperm pathology and diagnosis, and determines the number of deaths and the use of frozen sperm. METHODS: During the existence of CAR 01 (assisted reproduction center), more than 50,000 spermiograms were performed. From January 1995 to December 2020, a total of 24,729 men were examined within the sperm bank, of which 1,448 (5.9%) had an oncological diagnosis. The spermiograms were evaluated according to current WHO (World Health Organization) manuals. Cryopreservation of sperm has undergone a major development. The rules for the storage of frozen cells have been laid down by Act No. 296/2008 Coll. since 2008. In 2019, the methodology „Cryopreservation of reproductive cells and tissues in patients before cancer treatment“ was updated. In all cases, the standard thawing technique was used. The sperms were processed by the swim-up method. As part of the treatment with assisted reproduction methods, oocytes were fertilized by the ICSI (intracytoplasmatic sperm injection) micromanipulation technique. RESULTS: Out of 1,448 examined spermiograms in men with oncological diagnoses, testicular cancer was present in 43.7% of patients and malignant diseases of lymphatic and hematopoietic tissue were found in 24.1%, of which 70,1% included Hodgkin‘s lymphomas and 29,9% were non-Hodgkin‘s lymphomas. Leukemia was found in 7.9%, bone and cartilage cancers in 6.8%. The age of the clients of the whole group ranged from 13 to 64 years (27.2 ± 6.8 years). A total of 38.3% of men had normozoospermia, 54.2% of spermiograms showed pathological findings in 1 to 3 evaluated parameters and 7.5% of patients had azoospermia. Severe asthenozoospermia (mobility ≤ 10%) was detected in 57.2% of men and severe oligozoospermia (concentration ≤ 1 × 106 mm3) in 22.3% of patients. The lowest values of the spermiogram were found in men with testicular cancer; the best values were seen in CNS (central nervous system) cancers. The cryopreservation of sperm was performed in 1,340 cases (92.5%). So far, a total of 160 men (11.9%) have used frozen sperm, of which 6.2% in our center. In these 83 cases, the ICSI technique was always used, 38 clinical pregnancies (45.8%) and 32 births were achieved. We have registered 424 completed storages of semen (31.6%), of which 148 (11.0% of all oncology patients) were made due to death and the others at patients’ request. Using the sperm of the dead is a specific issue. CONCLUSION: In cancer patients, sperm pathologies occur in high percentage. The lowest spermiogram values were found in men with testicular cancer. It is necessary to take into account long-term storage and fertilization by micromanipulation methods. The number of men who die is significantly higher than the number of those who use sperm to treat infertility. Cryopreservation of sperm should be offered to each patient prior to the therapy leading to the destruction of spermatogenesis.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the prevalence of pelvic floor dysfunction symptoms, including pelvic organ prolapse (POP), urinary incontinence (UI), and fecal incontinence (FI) among primiparous women after vaginal and cesarean delivery. METHODS: In a prospective cohort study at a University hospital in the Czech Republic, singleton primiparas with cephalic presentation who delivered at term were enrolled between 2002 and 2007. In 2013, 5-10 years after delivery, women who had not delivered again completed an internet-based survey about current symptoms of POP, UI, and FI, which were evaluated using validated questionnaires. The relative risk (RR) of POP, UI, and FI symptoms was calculated. RESULTS: Complete questionnaire data were obtained from 641 women who delivered vaginally and 224 who delivered by cesarean. The mean UI score (ICIQ-SF) was 2.3 ± 3.6 in the vaginal group and 1.0 ± 2.7 in the cesarean group (P=0.005). The mean POP scores (POPDI-6) were 2.2 ± 2.3 and 2.1 ± 2.0, respectively (P=0.944). The mean Wexner scores to evaluate FI were 1.3 ± 1.7 and 1.0 ± 1.5, respectively (P=0.220). The RR of pelvic floor dysfunction after vaginal delivery was highest for women with UI symptoms (RR 1.15, 95% confidence interval 0.92-1.42). CONCLUSION: Significant differences in the occurrence of symptoms of UI were observed after vaginal delivery as compared with cesarean delivery. ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02661867.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: The objective was to compare the efficacy and safety of an innovative single-incision sling (SIS) with the inside-out transobturator sling (TOT) in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI). METHODS: A prospective randomized trial was performed in a tertiary referral urogynecology center from January 2012 to December 2013. The study included women with pure urodynamic SUI. Patients were randomized to either the SIS or the TOT anti-incontinence procedure. Surgery duration, blood loss, and groin pain scores were recorded for each patient. The 1-year follow-up visit included objective and subjective cure parameters, postoperative de novo urgency, complications, and the impact on the patient's life quality. RESULTS: Of 285 patients assessed for eligibility, a total of 93 patients (32.6 %) were randomized into TOT (n = 48) and SIS groups (n = 45). There were no significant differences in either operating time or blood loss. A statistically significant difference between the two groups was found in pain scores three (5.6 ± 1.8 vs 3.1 ± 2.1, p < 0.001) and 12 h postoperatively (3.8 ± 1.7 vs 2.1 ± 1.7, p < 0.001). After 1 year, there were no significant differences between the TOT and SIS groups in objective cure rates (87.0 % vs 90.9 %; p = 0.399) or patient-reported success rates (91.3 % vs 93.2 %; p = 0.999). Incidence of postoperative de novo urgency did not differ between TOT and SIS patients. Both groups registered a significant improvement in quality of life. CONCLUSIONS: The Ophira SIS procedure has 1-year success rates comparable to standard TOT with significantly less groin pain in the early postoperative period. Both methods were safe and effective in terms of postoperative urgency and life quality improvement.

INTRODUCTION: The terminology for female pelvic floor prolapse (POP) should be defined and organized in a clinically-based consensus Report. METHODS: This Report combines the input of members of two International Organizations, the International Urogynecological Association (IUGA) and the International Continence Society (ICS), assisted at intervals by external referees. Appropriate core clinical categories and a sub-classification were developed to give a coding to definitions. An extensive process of fourteen rounds of internal and external review was involved to exhaustively examine each definition, with decision-making by collective opinion (consensus). RESULTS: A Terminology Report for female POP, encompassing over 230 separate definitions, has been developed. It is clinically-based with the most common diagnoses defined. Clarity and user-friendliness have been key aims to make it interpretable by practitioners and trainees in all the different specialty groups involved in female pelvic floor dysfunction and POP. Female-specific imaging (ultrasound, radiology and MRI) and conservative and surgical managements are major additions and appropriate figures have been included to supplement and clarify the text. Emerging concepts and measurements, in use in the literature and offering further research potential, but requiring further validation, have been included as an appendix. Interval (5-10 year) review is anticipated to keep the document updated and as widely acceptable as possible. CONCLUSION: A consensus-based Terminology Report for female POP has been produced to aid clinical practice and research.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Although epidural analgesia is still regarded as the gold standard for labour analgesia due to its efficacy, in cases of contraindication, systemic remifentanil is an alternative. Since the first demonstration of the safety of remifentanil in obstetric analgesia in 1996, this has been repeatedly confirmed for both mother and newborn. The aim of this meta-analysis is to evaluate recently published studies (up to December 2014) on the analgesic efficacy of remifentanil during labour (as a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) decrease in the first hour by 2 or more). METHODS: Search of the US National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health (www.pubmed.gov), SCOPUS database (www.scopus.com) and Web of Science database (www.webofknowledge.com) using the key words "labour" and "remifentanil". 44 identified articles were included in the review and 15 published randomised controlled studies were incorporated into the meta-analysis. This was based on the fixed model and described by differences in the VAS between t=0 and t=1 hour after remifentanil administration using the 95% confidence interval (CI). The analysis was computed using the Comprehensive meta-analysis version 2.2.064. RESULTS: The combined data from the meta-analysis showed a statistically significant decrease in VAS in the remifentanil group. From a comparison of the CIs of summary estimates with a cut-off decrease of VAS 2, for the fixed model, there was a statistically significantly greater decrease in VAS than the cut-off. In the systematic review, we describe possible modes of application, dosage and side-effects for mother, fetus/ newborn. CONCLUSION: The meta-analysis presented here confirms that remifentanil for labour analgesia is effective but questions remain which can only be answered by further randomized trials.
