Pregnancy After Uterine-Preserving Prolapse Surgery: Obstetric Outcomes and Prolapse Recurrence Following Native Tissue and Mesh-Augmented Repairs.
Review in International urogynecology journal, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introduction and hypothesisTo evaluate current literature on uterine-sparing surgery for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) with respect to subsequent obstetric outcomes and POP recurrence.
methodsA comprehensive search was conducted through MEDLINE and PubMed from 1993 to November 2025 using PRISMA guidelines for studies exploring patients who had subsequent deliveries after undergoing surgical management of POP. Articles were evaluated by three independent reviewers for quality, relevance, and outcomes assessment.
resultsEighteen studies (six prospective, nine retrospective, and three case series) that included follow-up data on 126 patients with pregnancy after POP surgery were included in data analysis. The mean follow-up period was 37.2 months. The majority of patients had previously undergone native tissue POP repair, 64.3%, vs 35.7% who had undergone mesh-augmented repairs. Nearly all (94.8%) deliveries after POP surgery occurred at term. Cesarean delivery (CD) was common (65.8%). No neonatal complications were reported. POP recurrence rate was 11.7% with the majority (71.4%) occurring after native tissue repair. Analyzed separately, among 14 case reports of pregnancies following mesh-based sacrohysteropexy, cesarean delivery was common (85.7%) and prolapse recurrence rate was low.
conclusionCurrent evidence suggests that uterine-sparing prolapse surgery, whether mesh-augmented or native tissue, is associated with favorable obstetric outcomes, low neonatal risk, and low rates of POP recurrence; however, longitudinal data is limited in the absence of randomized controlled trials.
