A Multi-center Registry Study: The Complications After Women Having Pelvic Reconstruction Surgery With Trans-vaginal Mesh

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are collecting information from women who have pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and are treated with trans-vaginal mesh surgery. This hospital-based, multi-center study aims to observe and record postoperative complications, especially mesh exposure or erosion, using an international classification system. The study includes patients from 41 centers across China and will track outcomes over 12 and 36 months after surgery to understand current practices and complication rates in this population. Participants receive pelvic floor reconstructive surgery using either commercial mesh kits or self-cut synthesized mesh through the vagina. The study observes these patients without altering their treatment choice, focusing on how the surgery is performed and its results. Follow-up assessments occur at various points up to three years after surgery, including evaluations at 6 weeks, 3 months, 1 year, and annually to monitor anatomical cure rates and complications. During the study, participants will complete questionnaires about their pelvic health and sexual function using tools like POP-Q, PGI-I, PFDI-20, PFIQ-7, and PISQ-12 at scheduled visits. Researchers will review complication rates at 12 and 36 months while examining changes in symptoms and quality of life. Participants are expected to provide contact information for follow-up and complete online surveys through WeChat. The total follow-up lasts for 36 months after surgery, with ongoing data collection to better understand long-term outcomes and management of trans-vaginal mesh procedures.
