Comparison of Transvaginal Mesh System Placement for Support of Anterior and Apical Compartments in a Cadaver Model - Dennis P. Miller, M.D.

This study is designed to evaluate the degree of apical support of graft-reinforced pelvic floor repair (PFR) systems in the anterior compartment that use either the SSL (Pinnacle Pelvic Floor Repair) or ATFP fixation (Anterior Gynecare Prolift(R) Mesh; Perigee(R) Sling; Anterior Avaulta Solo(R) Introducer). The study also compared distances of major anatomical structures from sacrospinous apical pelvic floor repair systems implanted transvaginally in either the anterior compartment via an intravaginal mesh delivery device (Pinnacle) or posterior compartment using a trocar-based system (Anterior Gynecare Prolift Mesh; Posterior Avaulta Solo Introducer). Results will be presented during an oral poster session at 2:00 p.m.

Anterior Sacrospinous Ligament Fixation Associated with Paravaginal Repair Using the Pinnacle Device: An Anatomical Study - Renaud de Tayrac, M.D.

This study evaluates the reproducibility and anatomical risks after anterior sacrospinous ligament fixation associated with paravaginal repair using the Pinnacle Pelvic Floor Repair device. Results will be presented during an oral poster session at 4:00 p.m.

Symposium on Clinical Excellence and Product Innovation for SUI and PFR

This Boston Scientific-sponsored symposium will present new long-term data from the international mid-urethral sling registry, which assesses patient outcomes with the Obtryx(R) System and Advantage(R) System. Panelists will discuss the benefits of experienced-based versus evidence-based clinical data. Presenters will also address current and emerging surgical techniques for the management of apical and anterior prolapse repair, providing an overview of the evolution of the procedure. The symposium will take
