Local commissioners and/or providers have a responsibility to enable the guideline to be applied when individual health professionals and their patients or service users wish to use it. They should do so in the context of local and national priorities for funding and developing services, and in light of their duties to have due regard to the need to eliminate unlawful discrimination, to advance equality of opportunity and to reduce health inequalities.

Prolapse Repair Using Non-Synthetic Material: What Is the Current Standard?
Current Urology Reports (2019) 20:70 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11934-019-0939-8 LOWER URINARY TRACT SYMPTOMS & VOIDING DYSFUNCTION (J SANDHU, SECTION EDITOR) Prolapse Repair Using Non-synthetic Material: What is the Current Standard? Ricardo Palmerola1 & Nirit Rosenblum 1 # Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Purpose of Review Due to recent concerns over the use of synthetic mesh in pelvic floor reconstructive surgery, there has been a renewed interest in the utilization of non-synthetic repairs for pelvic organ prolapse. The purpose of this review is to review the current literature regarding pelvic organ prolapse repairs performed without the utilization of synthetic mesh. Recent Findings Native tissue repairs provide a durable surgical option for pelvic organ prolapse. Based on recent findings of recently performed randomized clinical trials with long-term follow-up, transvaginal native tissue repair continues to play a role in the management of pelvic organ prolapse without the added risk associated with synthetic mesh. Summary In 2019, the FDA called for manufacturers of synthetic mesh for transvaginal mesh to stop selling and distributing their products in the USA. Native tissue and non-synthetic pelvic organ prolapse repairs provide an efficacious alternative without the added risk inherent to the utilization of transvaginal mesh. A recent, multicenter, randomized clinical trial demonstrated no clear advantage to the utilization of synthetic mesh. Furthermore, transvaginal native tissue repairs have demonstrated good long-term efficacy, particularly when anatomic success is not the sole metric used to define surgical success.

Role of Conventional Radiology and Mri Defecography of Pelvic Floor
Reginelli et al. BMC Surgery 2013, 13(Suppl 2):S53 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2482/13/S2/S53 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Role of conventional radiology and MRi defecography of pelvic floor hernias Alfonso Reginelli1*, Graziella Di Grezia1, Gianluca Gatta1, Francesca Iacobellis1, Claudia Rossi1, Melchiore Giganti2, Francesco Coppolino3, Luca Brunese4 From 26th National Congress of the Italian Society of Geriatric Surgery Naples, Italy. 19-22 June 2013 Abstract Background: Purpose of the study is to define the role of conventional radiology and MRI in the evaluation of pelvic floor hernias in female pelvic floor disorders. Methods: A MEDLINE and PubMed search was performed for journals before March 2013 with MeSH major terms ‘MR Defecography’ and ‘pelvic floor hernias’. Results: The prevalence of pelvic floor hernias at conventional radiology was higher if compared with that at MRI. Concerning the hernia content, there were significantly more enteroceles and sigmoidoceles on conventional radiology than on MRI, whereas, in relation to the hernia development modalities, the prevalence of elytroceles, edroceles, and Douglas’ hernias at conventional radiology was significantly higher than that at MRI. Conclusions: MRI shows lower sensitivity than conventional radiology in the detection of pelvic floor hernias development. The less-invasive MRI may have a role in a better evaluation of the entire pelvic anatomy and pelvic organ interaction especially in patients with multicompartmental defects, planned for surgery. Introduction the pelvic examination alone has led to the need to use Pelvic floor disorders represent a significant cause of more direct and comprehensive diagnostic methods [3-6]. morbidity and reduction in quality of life that appear to Purposeofthestudyistodefinetheroleofconven- be increasing in frequency during the last few years [1].

Management of ODS depends on a comprehensive understanding of the anatomy and function of the anorectal region. Aims of this workshop are to provide participants the basic knowledge on: 1) the normal anatomy of the anorectum, 2) the diagnostic procedures including imaging techniques, manometric and neurophysiologic tests and 3) the main guidelines and indications for the treatment of ODS. Educational Objectives Highly regarded speakers of different specialties, including colorectal surgeons, radiologist and urogynecologist have been selected to provide their experiences on how to approach, from a practical point of view, patients with ostructed defecation syndrome Anatomy of the pelvic floor and the posterior compartment The pelvic organs rely on their connective tissue attachments to the pelvic walls and support from the levator ani muscles that are under neuronal control from the peripheral and central nervous systems.

Dynamic MRI of the Pelvic Floor
Dynamic Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Pelvic Floor Sindhura Alapati, MD,* and Kedar Jambhekar, MD Pelvic floor dysfunction is a widespread condition affecting up to 50% of elderly women. It markedly compromises the quality of life owing to various disabling symptoms such as pelvic pain, pelvic organ prolapse, and urinary and fecal incontinence. Although age and female sex are the main risk factors, others include multiparity, obesity, and connective tissue disorders. Pelvic floor dysfunction is frequently multicompartmental, and failure to diagnose it accurately often leads to treatment failure. Dynamic pelvic floor magnetic resonance imaging is a robust tool that enables simultaneous visualization of the 3 pelvic floor compartments and is indispensable for precise preoperative evaluation.
