Aim: To investigate the surgical outcomes, urinary incontinence and quality of life (QOL) of patients with pelvic organ prolapse after synthetic mesh-augmented repair in the Chinese population.Method: This is a retrospective study of women who underwent synthetic mesh-augmented repair.Surgical outcomes were investigated by recurrence rate of prolapse and Organ Prolapse Quantification, and QOL by Pelvic Floor Impact Questionnaire-7 (PFIQ-7) and Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory-20 (PFDI-20).The sex life quality was evaluated by Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire-31 (PISQ-31).Results: Eighty-three patients completed the entire study.Anatomical success was 90.36%.Of patients with preoperative stress urinary incontinence, 91.89% claimed that the incontinence symptoms were completely relieved.The 6-month PFDI-20 and PFIQ-7 scores were significantly decreased, indicating that improved QOL occurs.However, the PISQ-31 showed no significant difference between preoperative and postoperative data in sex life quality.Conclusion: The synthetic polypropylene mesh is effective in treating POP and may improve QOL with no significant difference in the sexual life postoperatively.De novo stress urinary incontinence may occur after synthetic mesh-augmented repair.
