Biomechanical properties of the prolapsed anterior vaginal wall in post-menopausal women

摘要

This study identified significant differences in biomechanical results based on the degree of hydration of the tissue: this is an important consideration for sample collection in future studies. The wetter samples (A) exhibited lower modulus and F compared to the moistened samples (B). Longer clinical follow-up will be necessary to determine the predictive relevance of these biomechanical findings on recurrence rates.
