First seen Jan 05, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study tested whether a special medical glue (IFABOND) can safely hold mesh in place during laparoscopic surgery for pelvic organ prolapse. The goal was to see if using glue instead of staples or stitches reduces complications like vaginal erosion. 70 women with advanced prolapse took part, and researchers checked how well the prolapse correction held up after 12 months.
