Article Description

Background: The hardest difficult issues in female pelvic floor repair is surgical correction of vaginal wall prolapse. After conventional colporrhaphy, the recurrence rate is between 40 and 60%. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness, symptom relief, healing, and infection rate of using Gamma irradiation sterilised amniotic membrane as a transplant vs traditional classical repair. Patients and Methods: From January 2019 to June 2020, a prospective study was done at Bab El-Sheria Maternity Hospital on a total of 40 patients (20 in each group). who was diagnosed with vaginal wall prolapse and had vaginal repair surgery Results: Fibrosis formation, vaginal dryness, and constipation were statistically non-significantly less common in the amniotic membrane group (p values=0.342, 0.661, and 0.487, respectively) in the current study. Conclusion: As demonstrated in the previous study, this approach has provided us with satisfactory outcomes with no serious problems and significant postoperative improvement in dyspaerunia.
