IntroductionPectopexy, a laparoscopic method for prolapse surgery, showed promising results in previous transient testing by this group. It was shown that a single suture, yielding an ultimate load of 35N, was equivalent to continuous suturing. This was demonstrated in an in vitro cadaver study. This transient data were used to establish an elastic stress-strain envelope. It was now possible to proceed to dynamic in vitro analysis of this surgical method to establish time to functional stability.MethodsCyclic testing of this fixation method was performed on human female embalmed cadaver (cohort 1) and fresh, non-embalmed cadaver (cohort 2) pelvises. The testing envelope was 5-25N at a speed of 1mm/s. 100 load regulated cycles were applied.Results100 cycles were completed with each model; no overall system failure occurred. Steady state, i.e., functional stability was reached after 14.5 (2.9) cycles for the embalmed group and after 19.1 (+/- 7.2) cycles for the non-embalmed group. This difference was statistically significant p=0.00025.Conclusion p id=Par4 This trial showed in an in vitro cyclic testing of the pectopexy method that functional stability may be achieved after no more than 19.1 cycles of load exposure. When remaining within the established load envelope of below 25N, patients do not need to fear global fixation failure. Testing did demonstrate differences in non-embalmed and embalmed cadaver testing. Embalmed cadaver testing tends to underestimate time to steady state by 26.3%.
