Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim is to compare proximate and remote results of 3D and conventional 2D laparoscopic interventions in terms of efficacy and safety in treatment of symptomatic rectocele and rectal prolapse.

This is a prospective randomized comparative study in parallel groups conducted in single Colorectal unit. Inclusion criteria: female patients with stage 3 rectocele (3-4 POP-Q [pelvic organ prolapse quantification] grade) and/or full-thickness rectal prolapse.

Intervention - laparoscopic ventral rectopexy. The primary outcome is objective cure rate of pelvic prolapse. Secondary outcomes include obstructive defecation and incontinence symptoms according to Wexner and Cleveland Clinic scales, and satisfaction according to Patient Global Impression of Improvement questionnaire. Operative times, intraoperative blood loss, length of hospital stay, postop pain severity, urinary incontinence, as well as surgical and mesh complications are also assessed.

The specific point of interest in this study is surgeon's tiredness after the operation assessed with Profile of Mood States questionnaire.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. objective cure rate [12 months postop]

    objective cure rate according to clinical POP-Q assesment

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. obstructive defecation cure [12 months postop]

    according to Wexner scale score (Cleveland Clinic Constipation Scoring System, scale of 0-30, with 0 = minimum, healthy individual and 30 = maximum, severe obstructive defecation)

  2. incontinence cure [12 months postop]

    according to Cleveland Clinic scale score (Cleveland Clinic Incontinence Scoring System, scale of 0-20, with 0 = minimum, perfect continence and 20 = maximum, complete incontinence)

  3. patient's satisfaction [12 months postop]

    according to PGII (Patient Global Impression of Improvement) questionnaire

Other Outcome Measures

  1. intraoperative blood loss [intraoperatively]

    intraoperative blood loss (ml)

  2. length of hospital stay [through study completion, an average of 1 year]

    length of hospital stay (days)

  3. postop pain severity [24 hours postop]

    VAS (Visual Analog Scale)

  4. postop stress urinary incontinence [12 months]

    Valsalva test (positive - urinary incontinence presents, negative - no stress urinary incontinence)

  5. complications rate [12 months]

    early and remote complications

  6. surgeon's tiredness [1 hour after the surgery]

    Profile of Mood States Questionnaire

  7. postoperative seroma/hematoma volume [3 weeks]

    size of liquid cavity surrounding mesh on 2-3 postoperative day and on 2-3 postoperative week (ml)

  8. postop pain syndrom duration [through study completion, an average of 1 year]

    pain medications consumption
