Introduction Recurrent urethral diverticulum has been reported in 23% of cases after primary repair and can be difficult to manage. The aim of this video is to demonstrate a surgical technique of repairing a recurrent diverticulum in a woman who had two previous procedures, one with a Martius labial fat pad graft. Methods A 40-year-old woman presented with a symptomatic recurrent urethral diverticulum after two previous repairs. She underwent surgery with excision of the diverticular mucosa and multilayer urethral closure using the diverticulum wall after mobilization and then repositioning of the Martius labial fat pad interposition. Results There were no surgical complications intra- or postoperatively, and the patient had improvement of her symptoms postoperatively with resolution of the diverticulum on ultrasound. Conclusions Mobilizing and repositioning a Martius labial fat pad is a feasible technique for complex recurrent urethral diverticulum repairs. The graft alone without meticulous urethral repair will not prevent diverticulum recurrence, fistula formation or stress urinary incontinence. This procedure requires experienced surgeons to minimize surgical complications and optimize outcome.Introduction Anterior colporrhaphy (AC) is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures for pelvic organ prolapse treatment; however, there are only few data in the literature regarding its long-term outcomes. Our aim was to assess the long-term efficacy and satisfaction rate after AC. Methods Patients who underwent AC at our institution from 2011 to 2014 were invited to this follow-up study, which took place in January-February 2019. Medical history and gynaecological examination with POP-Q assessment were performed. Patients filled out validated questionnaires UIQ-7, CRAIQ-7, POPIQ-7, PFIQ-7, POPDI-6, CRADI-8, and UDI-6 and evaluated their satisfaction with the procedure. Objective success was defined as anterior wall prolapse stage 0 or 1 assessed by the POP-Q system. Subjective success was defined as the absence of bulging sensation or a sense of falling out that can be felt or seen in the vaginal area. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and non-parametric tests. Results Seventy out of 137 (51.1%) patients attended the follow-up. Mean follow-up period up was 74.1 ± 12.6 months. Two patients were excluded from the analysis because they had another surgical procedure due to central compartment prolapse. Of the remaining patients, 50 had AC and 18 had AC and posterior colporrhaphy (PC). Objective success rate was 13.2% and subjective success rate was 68.7%. Almost all patients (98.5%) were satisfied with the procedure. In the group of patients with objective recurrence, 66.1% had no prolapse symptoms. Conclusion Despite having a low objective success rate, patients' satisfaction with AC is very high.Objective To describe the possible difficulties encountered in the event of laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy for vaginal vault prolapse and corresponding avoidance strategies. Methods Video recordings of different laparoscopic sacrocolpopexies for vaginal vault prolapse showing various situations and difficulties. University Teaching Hospital of Strasbourg. Results Although laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy for vaginal vault prolapse is becoming more common, achieving a good outcome remains challenging, especially with the vesicovaginal dissection. Bladder injuries are not rare and occur in about 2 to 6% of cases. Vaginal perforation is less common, but remains a risk. This video illustrates possible difficulties encountered and presents various strategies to avoid them. Several tips on exposing structures and following anatomical landmarks are described. Conclusion Knowing how to avoid these surgical traps will help trainee urogynecologic surgeons to perform laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy for vaginal vault prolapse.Introduction and hypothesis It is reported that almost one in five women will need some form of pelvic organ prolapse surgery in their lifetime, with anterior wall repair accounting for nearly half of these. selleck chemical Cystoceles occur secondary to defect(s) in one or more of the vaginal wall support mechanisms, including its lateral paravaginal attachments. Paravaginal defects are very common in women presenting with cystocele, thus highlighting the importance of paravaginal defect repair for optimal cystocele correction in the majority of cases. Although there are several paravaginal defect repair procedures, some entail complex techniques, whereas others rely on the use of transvaginal mesh, which is currently not permitted in many countries. Methods In this video article we present a novel trans-obturator native tissue paravaginal defect repair for the management of cystocele. Results This procedure has the advantages of avoiding complex transabdominal paravaginal defect repair, the controversial use of transvaginal mesh, or a single-point fixation to an arcus tendineus fasciae pelvis that might be difficult to identify. Conclusion We believe that the trans-obturator cystocele repair procedure offers several advantages over existing paravaginal defect repair alternatives.Neisseria gonorrhoeae antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and gonorrhea disease burden remain major public health concerns worldwide. To contribute to the supranational demands to monitor and manage the spread of antimicrobial-resistant N. gonorrhoeae, the Portuguese NIH promoted the creation of the National Laboratory Network for Neisseria gonorrhoeae Collection (PTGonoNet). The present study reports the N. gonorrhoeae major AMR trends observed from 2003 up to 2018. All isolates described in the present study constitute the opportunistic ongoing N. gonorrhoeae isolate collection supported by the National Reference Laboratory for Sexually Transmitted Infections of the Portuguese NIH, enrolling strains isolated in 35 different public and private laboratories. Minimum inhibitory concentrations were determined using E-tests for azithromycin, benzylpenicillin, cefixime, ceftriaxone, ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, spectinomycin and tetracycline. Molecular typing was determined using NG-MAST. AMR data of 2596 country-spread isolates show that 87.
