Laparoscopic pectopexy: a follow-up cyclic biomechanical analysis determining time to functional stability.

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 25 N, 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%.
