Synthetic Mesh Materials In Sling Surgery

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Incontinence
Registration Number
NCT01348334
Lead Sponsor
Ataturk Training and Research Hospital
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical results contributions to surgical success,and complications of mixed type of mesh materials as well as prolen mesh materials in sling surgery in a 3 year follow-up the first time in literature.

Detailed Description

Broad based double forced sling operations were performed in 144 patients by using 3 different types of mesh materials between 2004 and 2007. Group I consisted of 48 patients in whom Vypromesh® (Ethicon,USA) was used; Group II consisted of 48 patients in whom Ultrapromesh®( Ethicon,USA) and Group III consisted of 48 patients in whom Prolene light mesh® (Johnson\&Johnson,USA) was used. The data of the patients and the success of the operation were evaluated based on 24hr pad test, ICIQ-SF scoring, and Korman questionnaire analysis.

Main outcome measures:The Ultrapromesh® synthetic sling procedures have lower complications incidence and higher success rates than the other synthetic slings in 3-year follow-up.
