Lite-Y Trial Summary

This trial will compare outcomes of two types of surgery for vaginal prolapse. The hypothesis is that one surgery is not worse than the other.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women over 18 who need surgery for pelvic organ prolapse, including vaginal vault prolapse. It's open to those undergoing laparoscopic or robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy and may include related procedures like hysterectomy or incontinence repair. Women can't join if they can't consent, don't understand English, have unrelated surgeries needed, illnesses preventing laparoscopy, or require a different mesh type.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares two types of surgical mesh: Restorelle® Y and Vertessa® Lite Y used in laparoscopic or robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy for treating vaginal vault prolapse. The goal is to see if Vertessa® Lite Y is as effective as Restorelle® Y. Patients are randomly assigned one of the meshes during surgery.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects from the meshes could include discomfort at the surgical site, infection risk, bleeding complications, and possible mesh erosion into surrounding tissues which might require additional treatment.
