Abstract

The article discusses the outcome of a randomized controlled trial comparing polypropylene mesh-reinforced anterior vaginal prolapse repair with anterior colporrhaphy. According to the authors, anterior vaginal prolapse repair with polypropylene mesh reinforcement offers lower anatomic recurrence than anterior colporrhaphy at one year. However, the authors add that quality of life and sexual symptoms scores improved in both groups.
