Improvement of Cell Growth of Uterosacral Ligament Fibroblast Derived from Pelvic Organ Prolapse Patients by Cold Atmospheric Plasma Treated Liquid.

ABSTRACT: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a chronic disorder that affects quality of life in women. Several POP treatments may be accompanied by abrasion, constant infection, and severe pain. Therefore, new treatment methods and improvements in current treatments for POP are required. Non-thermal atmospheric-pressure plasma is a rising biomedical therapy that generates a mixed cocktail of reactive species by different mechanisms. In this study, we applied a cylinder-type dielectric barrier discharge plasma device to create a plasma-treated liquid (PTL). The PTL was added to primary cultured human uterosacral ligament fibroblast (hUSLF) cells from POP patients at each stage. Surprisingly, treatment with diluted PTL increased hUSLF cell viability but decreased ovarian cancer cell viability. PTL also decreased cell apoptosis in hUSLF cells but increased it in SKOV3 cells. Our results suggest that PTL protects hUSLF cells from cell apoptosis by controlling the p53 pathway and improves cell viability, implying that PTL is a promising application for POP therapy.

Project description:IntroductionLaparoscopic sacral colpopexy is the gold standard technique for apical prolapse correction but it is a technically challenging procedure with rare but severe morbidity. Laparoscopic high uterosacral ligament suspension could be a valid technically easier alternative using native tissue.Material and methodsIn the period from 2015 to 2018, 600 women were submitted to laparoscopic sacral colpopexy while 150 to laparoscopic high uterosacral ligament suspension in three Italian urogynecology referral centers. We enrolled women with apical prolapse stage ≥2 alone or multicompartment descensus. To reduce allocation bias, we performed a propensity matched analysis. Women undergoing laparoscopic high uterosacral ligament suspension surgery were matched 1:2 to women undergoing laparoscopic sacral colpopexy. The cumulative proportion of relapse-free women in time was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method. The primary objective of this multicenter case-control retrospective study was to compare the recurrence rate while the secondary objectives were to compare feasibility, safety, and efficacy of laparoscopic sacral colpopexy and laparoscopic high uterosacral ligament suspension in surgical treatment of pelvic organ prolapse.ResultsThree hundred and nine women were enrolled (103 laparoscopic high uterosacral ligament suspension; 206 laparoscopic sacral colpopexy). Median operatory time was significantly shorter in the laparoscopic high uterosacral ligament suspension group (P = 0.0001). No statistically significative difference was found in terms of estimated blood loss, admission time, intraoperative, and major early postoperative complications, postoperative pelvic pain, dyspareunia and de novo stress urinary incontinence. Surgical approach was the only independent risk factor for prolapse recurrence (RR = 6.013 [2.965-12.193], P = 0.0001). The objective cure rate was higher in the laparoscopic sacral colpopexy group (93.7 vs. 68%, 193/206 vs. 70/103, P = 0.0001) with a highly reduced risk of recurrence (RR = 5.430 [1.660-17.765]). Median follow up was 22 months.ConclusionBoth techniques are safe, feasible, and effective. Laparoscopic sacral colpopexy remains the best choice in treatment of multicompartment and advanced pelvic organ prolapse while laparoscopic high uterosacral ligament suspension could be appropriate for moderate and isolated apical prolapse when laparoscopic sacral colpopexy is not suitable for the patient or to prevent prolapse in women at high risk at the time of the hysterectomy.
