Main Findings
We showed in a cohort of patients that sacrocolpopexy using autologous
rectus fascia was an effective treatment for pelvic organ prolapse with
subjective and objective outcomes that were sustained for up to three
years. PFDI scores remained decreased by almost half for patients with
over three years of follow-up. Over 63% of patients had stage I or less
prolapse on exam at last follow-up. And only 5% of patients underwent
reoperation for prolapse recurrence. In addition, the use of autologous
fascia eliminated the up to 10.5% mesh complications noted in the CARE
trial follow-up.4
