Suture erosion and wound dehiscence with permanent versus absorbable suture in reconstructive posterior vaginal surgery

Article Abstract:

A study determined the incidence of wound disruption after reconstructive posterior vaginal surgery with braided permanent versus absorbable suture. The results revealed that permanent sutures increase the incidence in wound disruption and the need for additional surgical intervention in posterior colporrhapy and anal sphincteroplasty.

Vascular anatomy of the presacral space: A fresh tissue cadaver dissection

Article Abstract:

A study is conducted to assess variability in the vascular structures of the presacral space and to estimate the risk of injury because of blind suture placement during sacral colpopexy. The vascular pattern of the presacral space is variable, and major vessels may deviate significantly from their positions.

Racial differences in pelvic morphology among asymptomatic nulliparous women as seen on three-dimensional magnetic resonance images

Article Abstract:

A study to compare pelvic morphology between asymptomatic African-American and white nulliparous women is presented. The increased muscle bulk and closer puborectalis attachment seen among the African-American nulliparous women may affect the development of pelvic floor dysfunction.
