Summary

The rug weaving-like plication technique may offer a viable alternative for cystocele repair without mesh, utilizing natural tissue.

Detailed description

The aim of this study is to compare patients who underwent cystocele repair using the rug weaving plication technique, a natural tissue repair method implemented since 2022 for anterior prolapse, with those treated using conventional techniques. The investigators retrospectively reviewed 33 patients who underwent anterior vaginal wall repair with the rug weaving-like plication technique and 32 patients who underwent surgery using conventional colporrhaphy. The investigators recorded demographic data and operative details of the patients. At the 6-month postoperative follow-up,the investigators assessed patients' complaints, Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q), Modified Oxford Scoring (MOS), and pelvic floor muscle strength. The investigators measured bladder wall thickness between the bladder and anterior vaginal wall using Transvaginal Ultrasonography (USG) and compared demographic data, operative details, and postoperative outcomes between the two groups.
