Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the 3-year success of placing a single-incision midurethral sling (SIMS) using the Dynamic Intraoperative Standing Sling Technique (DISST) in an office setting under local anesthesia. METHODS This is a prospective case series of 20 women who underwent in-office SIMS procedure by the DISST from July 2019 to February 2020. This is an extension of our pilot study (11) and all 20 patients were evaluated at a mean follow-up of 34.3months. Success was defined as a composite score of objective success (negative standing cough test at bladder fullness), subjective success based on the modified PGI-I score of "very much better" or "much better," and no retreatment for stress urinary incontinence. Secondary objectives were adverse events, de novo overactivity of the bladder, recurrent urinary tract infections, voiding dysfunction, pain/dyspareunia, and influence on sexual function. RESULTS The composite success rate was 95% (95% CI [75.1, 99.9]) at the 36-month follow-up. The significant improvement in MESA scores was maintained over the study period. There were no cases of de novo urgency, mesh exposure, postop voiding dysfunction or recurrent urinary tract infections. There were no cases of de novo dyspareunia. CONCLUSION SIMS placed by the DISST technique under local anesthesia in an office setting has shown sustained efficacy over a 3-year period with no decrease in cure. Subjects remained dry and reported excellent improvement in symptoms and quality of life at the 36-month follow-up visit.

Changes in Pelvic Floor Symptoms After Procedural Interventions for Uterine Leiomyomas: A Systematic Review. Obstet Gynecol 2023; 142:319-329. [PMID: 37411023 DOI: 10.1097/aog.0000000000005260] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2023] [Accepted: 05/11/2023] [Indexed: 07/08/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To conduct a systematic review to evaluate the effect of procedural interventions for leiomyomas on pelvic floor symptoms. DATA SOURCES PubMed, EMBASE, and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched from inception to January 12, 2023, searching for leiomyoma procedures and pelvic floor disorders and symptoms, restricted to primary study designs in humans. METHODS OF STUDY SELECTION Double independent screening for studies of any study design in all languages that reported pelvic floor symptoms before and after surgical (hysterectomy, myomectomy, radiofrequency volumetric thermal ablation) or radiologic (uterine artery embolization, magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasonography, high-intensity focused ultrasonography) procedures for management of uterine leiomyomas. Data were extracted, with risk-of-bias assessment and review by a second researcher. Random effects model meta-analyses were conducted, as feasible. TABULATION, INTEGRATION, AND RESULTS Six randomized controlled trials, one nonrandomized comparative study, and 25 single-group studies met criteria. The overall quality of the studies was moderate. Only six studies, reporting various outcomes, directly compared two procedures for leiomyomas. Across studies, leiomyoma procedures were associated with decreased symptom distress per the UDI-6 (Urinary Distress Inventory, Short Form) (summary mean change -18.7, 95% CI -25.9 to -11.5; six studies) and improved quality of life per the IIQ-7 (Incontinence Impact Questionnaire, Short Form) (summary mean change -10.7, 95% CI -15.8 to -5.6; six studies). There was a wide range of resolution of urinary symptoms after procedural interventions (7.6-100%), and this varied over time. Urinary symptoms improved in 19.0-87.5% of patients, and the definitions for improvement varied between studies. Bowel symptoms were inconsistently reported in the literature. CONCLUSION Urinary symptoms improved after procedural interventions for uterine leiomyomas, although there is high heterogeneity among studies and few data on long-term outcomes or comparing different procedures. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION PROSPERO, CRD42021272678.
