Pectopexy vs sacrocolpopexy: an analysis of 50 cases in a North American hospital.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Laparoscopic pectopexy is an alternative to sacrocolpopexy that was first reported in 2010. This procedure has been performed at our hospital since 2019 in patients with contraindications to sacrocolpopexy.

Objective

This study aimed to compare the outcomes of 50 cases of pectopexy with historical outcomes data for sacrocolpopexy.

Study design

This was a retrospective review of 50 laparoscopic pectopexies performed from July 2020 to July 2022 at an academic tertiary referral center; this was the second reported use of this technique in North America. The outcomes from laparoscopic pectopexy were compared with laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy performed at the same institution by the same surgeons (n=207). The primary outcomes were complication rate, rate of recurrent prolapse (stage II or greater), and reoperation.

Results

Overall complication rates were 6.0% for pectopexy and 16.5% for sacrocolpopexy (relative risk, 0.79; P=.65). Recurrent prolapse was seen among 2.0% of patients who underwent pectopexy and 6.3% of patients who underwent sacrocolpopexy at most recent follow-up (relative risk, 1.27; P=.66). The rates of reoperation were 2.0% for pectopexy and 3.9% for sacrocolpopexy (relative risk, 1.04; P=.96). The average operative times were 138 minutes for pectopexy and 158 minutes for sacrocolpopexy. The average lengths of follow-up were 88.1 days for pectopexy and 325.5 for sacrocolpopexy.

Conclusion

Although pectopexy was typically employed in patients with extensive pelvic adhesions or other conditions that placed them at higher risk of complications, both the success rate and the adverse event rate were similar to those in the historical cohort who underwent sacrocolpopexy. Although sacrocolpopexy remains the gold standard operation for apical prolapse, our data suggest that pectopexy can be employed to offer similar outcomes in many patients with contraindications to sacral fixation. These data give us increasing confidence that we can counsel our patients that this operation is likely to produce an outcome similar to a sacrocolpopexy.

Project description:ObjectivesA periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a significant complication after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Still there is no agreement on a perfect diagnosis and treatment algorithm. The aim of this study was to evaluate the success and revision rates after two-stage revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and factors that affect the success rate.Material and methods50 consecutive two-stage revision TKAs were performed between January 2011 and December 2012. We retrospectively reviewed study patient's charts including demographics, prior surgeries, comorbidities, incidence of persistent infection and revisions. At the final follow-up examination the patient's satisfaction, pain level and disorders were evaluated. A successful clinical outcome was defined as a functioning prosthesis without wound healing disorders, no sinuses tracts or other clinical evidence of a persistent infection. Results : Re-implantation of prosthesis was performed in 47 cases; three patients received a septic arthrodesis. Twelve patients had a persistent infection despite two-stage re-implantation resulting in a success rate of 76.0%. In eight of these twelve patients an infecting germ was isolated during second-stage procedure. Three patients received another two-stage revision arthroplasty and one patient an above knee amputation. A revision was performed in 23 of 50 patients (46.0%). Factors that diminish the success rate were further operations after primary TKA (p = 0.048), prior revision arthroplasties after TKA (p = 0.045), nicotine abuse (p = 0.048), Charlson comorbidity index above a score of 2 (p = 0.031) and a mixed flora during first-stage procedure (p < 0.001). Age, sex, immune status, chronic anticoagulant use, rheumatoid arthritis, body mass index and the presence of multidrug resistant germs showed no significant effect on success rate (p > 0.05). Conclusion : We found that patients who required surgery after the primary TKA, had a higher Charlson comorbidity index or were found to have mixed flora during explantation. The treatment of PJI remains difficult, both for the patient and for the treating surgeons.
