Abstract
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is the descent of one of more aspects of the vagina and/or uterus. Evaluation of POP always begins with a thorough history and physical examination. Management choices include observation, conservative options, and surgical options. Surgical management is divided into two categories, which are restorative and obliterative. It is important to counsel patients that although POP may affect quality of life, it is not life-threatening. This chapter is designed to guide the healthcare provider with a review of epidemiology, anatomy, evaluation, and management of POP. The chapter contains 14 figures that illustrate examples of common examination findings, devices, and treatment options. Also, there are 5 tables that provide concise reference materials to help guide the healthcare provider.
This review contains 91 references, 14 figures, and 6 tables.
Key Words: constipation, mesh, pain, pelvic floor, pessary, POP-Q, risk factors, surgery, vaginal wall
