A Prospective, Multicenter, Controlled Clinical Study of Collagen Fibrous Scaffold for the Treatment of Cesarean Scar Diverticulum (CSD-SCAFFOLD)
Cesarean scar diverticulum (CSD, uterine niche) is a common long-term complication of cesarean delivery, frequently presenting with abnormal vaginal bleeding (postmenstrual spotting, prolonged menses), pelvic pain, and adverse reproductive outcomes. Current surgical repair yields variable niche shrinkage and inconsistent symptom and fertility improvement. This prospective, multicenter, controlled study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of collagen fibrous scaffold implantation versus conventional repair alone. Eligible symptomatic women will be enrolled from multiple tertiary obstetrics and gynecology centers. The primary outcome is change in CSD niche volume measured by transvaginal three-dimensional ultrasound. Secondary outcomes include improvement of abnormal vaginal bleeding and reproductive outcomes. Participants will be followed at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively.

Description détaillée
This is a prospective, multicenter, parallel controlled interventional study in symptomatic women with cesarean scar diverticulum. Subjects meeting the inclusion criteria will be allocated to the intervention group (collagen fibrous scaffold implantation) or the control group (standard surgical repair without scaffold).
Baseline assessments include transvaginal 3D ultrasound for niche volume measurement, menstrual symptom diary, pelvic pain evaluation, reproductive history, pelvic imaging, and routine laboratory tests. The index repair surgery (hysteroscopic combined laparoscopic) is performed per standardized protocol by experienced gynecologic surgeons. In the intervention group, the collagen fibrous scaffold is placed at the CSD to support tissue regeneration and scar remodeling. The control group receives identical surgical repair without scaffold implantation.
Follow-up visits are scheduled at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery. At each visit, adverse events, vaginal bleeding pattern, menstrual duration, and pelvic discomfort are recorded. Transvaginal 3D ultrasound is performed to quantify niche volume. Reproductive data including spontaneous conception, clinical pregnancy, pregnancy continuation, and pregnancy complications are collected up to 12 months. Safety endpoints include intraoperative hemorrhage, visceral injury, surgical site infection, scaffold-related reactions, pelvic adhesion, and persistent pain. All adverse events are graded for severity and assessed for relatedness to the study device or procedure.
Primary analysis compares between-group difference in niche volume change from baseline to 6 months. Secondary analyses compare abnormal vaginal bleeding parameters and reproductive outcomes. Safety profiles will be summarized. Analyses will be conducted on intention-to-treat and per-protocol populations.

Expérimental: Arm 1: Intervention Group
Collagen fibrous scaffold is implanted at the site of the cesarean scar diverticulum under 3D ultrasound guidance, without hysteroscopic or laparoscopic surgery. |
The diverticulum is localized under hysteroscopic guidance, and diverticulectomy and scar repair are performed laparoscopically without implantable collagen fibrous scaffold .

Comparateur actif: Arm 2: Control Group
Identical hysteroscopic combined laparoscopic surgical repair of the CSD defect; no collagen fibrous scaffold is implanted. |
The diverticulum is localized under hysteroscopic guidance, and diverticulectomy and scar repair are performed laparoscopically without placement of implantable collagen fibrous scaffold. |
