Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) occurs when pelvic organs such as the bladder, uterus, or rectum descend from their normal positions due to weakness in the muscles and tissues that support them. Symptoms may include a sensation of bulging or pressure in the vagina. POP has stages from I to IV depending on how far the organs have descended. Treatment options include pelvic floor exercises, pessaries to support organs, or surgery to repair tissues. Surgical procedures aim to restore normal anatomy and are defect-specific depending on the affected compartment. While surgery effectively treats POP, recurrence rates are around 5% and mesh procedures carry risks of erosion or pain.

3. DEFINITION
Osama Warda 3
• Pelvic organ prolapse
(POP) can be defined as
descent of the pelvic
organ(s) ; bladder,
rectum, vagina, uterus;
below their normal
anatomical position.
4. Relevant Anatomy
Osama Warda 4
• Uterovaginal prolapse is caused by
failure of the interaction between the
levator ani muscles and the
ligaments and fascia that support the
pelvic organs.
• The levator ani muscles are
puborectalis, pubococcygeus and
iliococcygeus.
• They are attached on each side of the
pelvic side wall from the pubic ramus
anteriorly (pubococcygeus), over the
obturator internus fascia to the ischial
spine to form a b

5. Relevant Anatomy
Osama Warda 5
• There is a gap between the
fibers of the puborectalis on
each side to allow passage of
the urethra, vagina and
rectum, called the urogenital
hiatus.
• The levator muscles support the
pelvic organs and prevent
excessive loading of the
ligaments and fascia.
12. ETIOLOGY OF POP
Osama Warda 12
Congenital
Acquired .
• Obstetric trauma
• Childbirth, repeated & frequent, faulty management of
labour
• Early resumption of sternous work
• Increase intra abdominal pressure
• Age / menopause
14. Symptoms from POP
Osama Warda 14
• POP can cause symptoms directly due to the
prolapsed organ or indirectly due to organ
dysfunction secondary to displacement from the
anatomical position.
• Direct POP symptoms include:
(1)a sensation of vaginal bulge,
(2)heaviness or a visible protrusion at or beyond the
introitus.
(3) lower abdominal or back pain, or a dragging
discomfort relieved by lying or sitting.
15. Symptoms from POP
Osama Warda 15
• Indirect symptoms: will depend on which other
organs are involved in the prolapse. They include:
(1)difficulty in urination or defecation (obstructive defecation)
(2) sensations of incomplete emptying of bladder or rectum.
(3)Patients may have to support or reduce the prolapse with
their fingers to be able to void or evacuate stool completely
(i.e. digitation)
(4) Urinary or fecal incontinence may also be present
(5) Sexual dysfunction due to introital laxity
(6) Bleeding from abrasion of the prolapsed part/decubitus
ulcer
17. Clinical assessment of prolapse
Osama Warda 17
THE HISTORY:
• You should elicit the presenting symptom(s) and
severity, and include questions to ascertain if the
patient has any coexisting urinary, fecal or sexual
symptoms .
• One should be sensitive to the emotional aspect
of the problem, but specific questions should be
asked about sexual discomfort and difficulty
achieving orgasm.
18. Clinical assessment of prolapse
Osama Warda 18
CLINICAL EXAM
• should ideally be done in the lithotomy position with a
Sims speculum . This allows retraction of the anterior
and posterior vaginal wall in turn, to allow full
assessment of the degree of prolapse and to assess
how much descent of the cervix and uterus is present.
• Prolapse is classically described in three stages of
descent, and note should be made of whether it occurs
at patient straining or at rest and whether traction has
been applied:
22. Stages of POP
Osama Warda 22
Vaginal prolapse is formally staged using
different methods, but the most important
assessment is whether the vaginal prolapse
reaches to, or beyond, the hymen.

QStages of POP
Osama Warda 27
• Once the measurements are taken, the patients are assigned
to the corresponding stage:
• Stage 0 = no prolapse during straining.
• stage I = most distal portion of prolapse is> 1cm above level of
hymen
• Stage II= the most distal part of prolapse is <1cm proximal to or
distal to the plane of hymen
• Stage III=the most distal portion of the prolapse protrudes more
than 1 cm below the hymen but not all of the vagina has
prolapsed.
• Stage IV=complete vaginal eversion is essential.
30. Treatment for
prolapse
Osama Warda 30
Conservative treatment:
includes
1
-
‐
pelvic floor muscle exercises
and
2
- The use of supportive vaginal pessaries.
-
‐For women with urinary or bowel symptoms as well,
conservative treatment for these symptoms can be
commenced at the same time as for the prolapse.
31. Treatment for
prolapse
Osama Warda 31
Conservative treatment: Pelvic floor exercises
– A course of supervised pelvic floor exercises will
reduce the symptoms of prolapse and for women
who are keen to avoid surgical treatment, this can
be an effective first step, although there is less
evidence that pelvic floor exercise will reduce the
anatomical extent of the prolapse and it is unlikely
to be helpful for women whose prolapse is beyond
the vaginal introitus.
32. Treatment for
prolapse
Osama Warda 32
Conservative treatment: Pessary treatment:
• A vaginal support pessary is inserted to reduce the
prolapse, which leads to resolution of many of the
symptoms.
• Pessary use can be very effective at relieving symptoms
and has the advantage of avoiding surgery and the
associated risks, which can be extremely useful in the
medically unfit and elderly.
• A range of shapes of pessary is available (see picture)
33. Conservative treatment: Pessary treatment: (cont.)
• Ring pessaries are usually tried first, but an intact
perineal body is necessary for these to be retained.
• Shelf pessaries, Gelhorn pessaries and others are
useful for women with deficient perineal bodies.
• It is usual practice to replace a pessary every 6
months and to examine the patient for signs of
vaginal ulceration, although this frequency is
traditional and not based on any evidence.

Osama Warda 35
• Complications are uncommon
• usually minor (bleeding, discharge),
• incarcerated,
• rectovaginal or vesicovaginal fistula formation
• Difficult sexul intercourse.
36. SURGERY FOR
POP
Osama Warda 36
• There are a wide range of specific procedures .
• The procedure chosen depends on
(1).which compartment is affected,
(2).whether the woman wishes to retain her uterus/fertility
(3).whether the vaginal or abdominal route of surgery is
chosen.
• The essential principles of prolapse surgery apply
for all procedures.
• 4) Vault prolapse

43. Key points
Prolapse is not life threatening
A course of pelvic floor exercises can reduce symptoms and
may reduce prolapse progression
Vaginal pessaries are a useful conservative treatment but do
not suit all women
Surgery for prolapse iseffective, but has a recurrence rate
of about 5%.
It isnot essential to perform hysterectomy for prolapse.
Mesh repairs for prolapse give a better anatomical cure
Mesh complications are common and can be extremely
difficult to manage
