Transvaginal cystocele repair using tension-free polypropylene mesh at the time of sacrospinous colpopexy for advanced uterovaginal prolapse: a prospective randomised study

Table 3 POP-Q values at baseline and at the last follow-up in patients in the two study groups

POP-Q measurements (cm)	No-mesh group (n = 63)			Mesh group (n = 53)			p value
POP-Q measurements (cm)	Baseline	Follow-up	Difference	Baseline	Follow-up	Difference	p value
Point Ba	4.0 ± 2.2	−1.0 ± 1.9	−5.0 ± 2.6	4.0 ± 2.0	−2.2 ± 1.3	−6.2 ± 2.1	0.004
Point C	4.7 ± 2.5	−4.8 ± 2.8	−9.5 ± 3.5	4.9 ± 2.2	−6.0 ± 2.2	−10.9 ± 3.3	0.024
Point Bp	3.9 ± 2.2	−1.8 ± 1.1	−5.7 ± 2.3	3.7 ± 2.3	−2.4 ± 0.6	−6.1 ± 2.4	0.322

Data are mean ± SD. The POP-Q measurements are as recommended [9]. Point Ba is the anterior wall, most-dependent part (in centimetres); point C, cervix or vaginal cuff (in centimetres); point Bp, posterior wall, most-dependent part (in centimetres)
