uterine Prolapse and incontinence
1. Pelvic organ prolapse & incontinence
Dr Bhaskar J Paul
Associate professor
Obstetrics and Gynaecology
2. Learning Objective
⢠Q1 Definition of prolapse
⢠Q3 what are the symptoms of pelvic floor disorders in women ? What are the
symptoms of abnormal function of the lower urinary tract associated with pelvic
floor problems in women and how can this condition be treated ?
⢠Q5 . What are the symptoms of abnormal function of the gastrointestinal tract in
women with pelvic floor problem ?
⢠Q6 . how does prolapse of the internal reproductive organs in women come about ?
⢠Q8. what are the findings on physical examination of women with a cystocele or
rectocele and what is the treatment ?
⢠What are the findings on physical examination of a prolapsed uterus ? What are the
three possible treatments for a patient with prolapsed complaints ?
3. A 64 years old multipara
presents with loss of small
amount of urine when she
coughs or laughs or lifts heavy
objects
On examination she has a
second degree uterovaginal
prolapse on standing position
an relieves on lying position.
She is mildly constipated and
some times needs digitalisation
to initiate defecation
Clinical
problem
What you can offer to this
woman ?
.
Your
solution
10. Level 1 support (Delency )
⢠Level 1 : uretero sacral and cardinal ligament complex
11. Level 2 support
⢠Level II- Pelvic fascias and paracolpos
â Fascial septae connects mid vagina to the pelvic sidewalls
â Anteriorly
⢠Pubocervical
â Posteriorly
⢠Rectovaginal facia
â which connects the vagina to the white line on the lateral pelvic wall
through arcus tendinous
12. Level 3 support
⢠Level III-Levator ani muscle
â supports the lower one-third of vagina.
â Anteriorly
⢠Urethra
⢠Urogenital diaphragm
⢠Pubis
â laterally
⢠Levator ani fascia
â Posteriorly
⢠Perineal body
Level II and III detail. In level III, the vagina is fused to the
medial surface of the levator ani muscles, urethra, and
perineal body. The anterior surface of the vagina at its
attachment to the arcus tendineus fascia pelvis forms the
pubocervical fascia, while the posterior surface forms the
rectovaginal fascia
13. Causes and pathophysiology LQ 6
⢠Menopause
⢠birth injury
⢠Prolonged bearing down in the second stage
⢠Delivery of a big baby
⢠Rapid succession of pregnancies
⢠Lack of rest in peurperium
⢠Peripheral nerve injury
⢠raised intra-abdominal pressure
⢠Surgeries
⢠Congenital
14. Pathophysiology
⢠Menopause
â prolapse are of menopausal age when the pelvic floor muscles
â d/t oestrogen deficiency and decreased collagen content in fasciasď
atonicity and asthenia that follow menopause
15. Cause related to child birth
excessive stretching
of the pelvic floor
muscles and
ligaments
overstretching causes
atonicity
Perineal tear is less
harmful than
overstretching
whereas torn
muscle could be
stitched or toned up
16. Cause related to raised abdominal pressure
⢠chronic bronchitis,
⢠large abdominal tumours or
⢠obesity
⢠Smoking,
⢠chronic cough and
⢠constipation
18. Symptoms LQ 3 & 5
⢠General symptoms
⢠Backache
â uterosacral strain
⢠Towards evening
relieved by rest
⢠Decubitus ulcer
⢠benign and is present on dependant part.
⢠d/t venous stasis ď tissue anoxia
⢠With third degree uterine prolapse and procidentia prevents
penetration and orgasm due to a lax outlet (coital difficulty )
19. Symptoms related to LUT LQ 3
⢠imperfect control of micturition
⢠Frequency of micturition
â (diurnal or nocturnal)
â (d/t chronic cystitis & incomplete emptying of the bladder)
⢠Manual reduction of the cystocele into the vagina with their fingers
⢠Straining to pass urine
⢠Stress incontinence
⢠Ureteric obstruction and hydronephrosis (severe massive prolapse)
20. Symptoms related to lower gastrointestinal tract
(Bowel symptoms )LQ 5
⢠Urgency
⢠Straining
⢠Feeling of incomplete emptying
⢠Pressure on vagina or perineum to start or complete
defaecation
21. Evaluation and Findings LQ 8 & 9
Anterior compartment
⢠Simâs speculum retracting
posterior vaginal wall
⢠Look for cystocele
⢠Lateral cystocele or
paravaginal defect
⢠Urethrocele } stress
incontinence
Middle compartment
⢠Degree of descent
⢠Ulceration of cervix
⢠Vagina may show
keratinisation
⢠Vaginal examination â
length of cervix,position
and mobility of uterus,any
adnexal mass
⢠Cervical cytology
Posterior compartment
⢠Simâs speculum retracting
anterior vaginal wall
⢠Enterocele â bulge
appears from above
downwards
⢠Rectal examination â
impulse on
⢠tip of finger- enterocele
⢠pulp - rectocele
⢠Bimanual examination-
r/o pelvic mass
22. Evaluation of the pelvic floor
⢠Pubococcygeus part of levator ani assessed at 4 and 8 oâclock
position
⢠Perineal body
⢠Rectal examination â tone of anal sphincter
24. Pelvic organ prolapse quantification POPQ
Anterior wall
⢠A
⢠B
⢠C
Posterior wall
⢠A
⢠B
⢠c
Other 3
parameters
⢠gH
⢠PB
⢠TvL
25. Differential diagnosis
⢠Vulval cyst or tumour
⢠Cysts of anterior vaginal wall
⢠Urethral diverticula
⢠Congenital elongation of cervix
â vaginal portion of the cervix is elongated and
â no vaginal prolapse.
â deep fornices
⢠Cervical fibroid polyp
⢠Chronic inversion
26. Treatment : prophylaxis
ď Antenatal physiotherapy ,relaxation exercises,due attention to weight gain
and anaemia
ď Proper supervision and management of second stage of labour
ď A generous episiotomy
ď Low forceps delivery if there is delay in second stage
ď Suture perineal tear
ď Postnatal exercises and physiotherapy
ď early postnatal ambulation
ď Adequate spacing of births
ď Avoid multiparity
ď Prophylatic HRT in postmenopausal women
27. Treatment
⢠Surgical
â in women over 40
⢠Conservative management
â mechanical devices and
â pelvic floor muscle exercises ,abdominal massage,
⢠in mild degrees of prolapse,
⢠surgery not desired by patient ,
⢠in whom child bearing is not complete
⢠Should be advised 3 to 4 months following delivery
⢠Pregnancy â contraindication for surgery
28. Pessary (conservative treatment)
⢠Indications
ďA young woman planning a pregnancy
ďDuring early pregnancy (<18 weeks)
ďPuerperium
ďTemporary use while clearing infection and decubitus ulcer
ďA woman unfit for surgery
ďIn case a woman refuses for surgery
29. Surgical approach
⢠Ward-Mayoâs operation-vaginal hysterectomy with pelvic floor
repair with or without:
sacrospinous colpopexy âvault suspended from sacrospinous
ligament
⢠Fothergillâs or Manchester operation âuterus preserved and part
of cervix is cut
⢠Shirodkarâs Extended Manchester operation-both cervix and
uterus preserved
⢠Le Fortâs operation âobliterative procedure of anterior and
posterior walls of vagina
