Long-term outcomes of vaginal mesh versus native tissue repair for anterior vaginal wall prolapse.
This study estimated the rate of repeat surgery after vaginal mesh versus native tissue repair for anterior vaginal wall prolapse. The researchers found that the overall risk of any future surgery was higher in the women receiving mesh; however, native tissue and vaginal mesh surgery had similar 5-year risks for recurrent prolapse.
