These findings are being presented this week at the North Central Section of the American Urological Association in Scottsdale, Ariz.

Researchers in Nashville review experiences at two centers in Sierra Leone to assess factors predictive of successful fistula repair. Their findings were presented at the 104th Annual Scientific Meeting of the American Urological Association.

The study was presented at the 104th Annual Scientific Meeting of the American Urological Association (AUA) and showed that the injection of muscle-derived cells was well tolerated and significantly improved symptoms.

Hysterectomy may not be the only option for women with pelvic organ prolapse.
