About
The objective of the study is to retrospectively collect the data on patients who underwent pelvic organ prolapse treatment using a non-ablative Er:YAG laser with SMOOTH mode and to conduct an objective evaluation of safety and efficacy of Er:YAG laser treatment. In a group of patients that have concomitant stress urinary incontinence symptoms, the effectiveness of the treatments on these symptoms will be evaluated as well.
Full description
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI) affect many women and can dramatically decrease their quality of life. Most of the patients diagnosed with stress urinary incontinence also have a degree of pelvic organ prolapse and vice-versa.
One of the more promising new approaches in treating disorders connected to pelvic floor dysfunction has been the introduction of vaginal erbium laser treatment for pelvic organ prolapse.
The primary aim of the present retrospective study was toassess the effectiveness of vaginal erbium laser with SMOOTH mode for the treatment of patients with pelvic organ prolapse and co-existing stress urinary incontinence, if present.
