Abstract:

Change from quadruped to erect posture has resulted in changes in the human pelvis. This has resulted in pelvis supporting the abdominal viscera. The bony pelvis is deficient on inferior aspect. Muscles covered by fascia on superior and inferior aspect. A good knowledge of pelvic floor is very basic and mandatory for any gynecologist as pelvic floor is crucial to support the pelvic organs and is required to maintain urinary and fecal continence.

Abstract:

Background: The pelvic floor is a bowl-shaped complex of multiple muscles and fascia, which functions to support the pelvic organs, and it aids in controlling continence. In pelvic floor disease, this complex becomes weakened or damaged leading to urinary, fecal incontinence, and pelvic organ prolapse. It is unclear whether the position of the body impacts the forces on the pelvic floor. Purpose: The primary objective of this work is to measure force applied to the pelvic floor of a cadaver in sitting, standing, supine, and control positions. The secondary objective is to map the forces across

Abstract:

Pelvic floor descent syndrome (PFDS) affects multiparous and postmenopausal women. According to epidemiological studies in postmenopausal women, more than 50% suffer from severe symptoms of PFDS, which significantly reduce the quality of life. The high prevalence of pelvic floor pathology increases the need for multimodal diagnosis and treatment. The pelvic floor is a unique anatomical and functional structure and malfunction of this system may lead to many different static and functional disorders. There are a lot of methods of medical imaging modalities for PFDS (X-ray defecography, perineal

Abstract:

Biometric studies in nulliparous women conducted to date are limited by small sample sizes. The pelvic floor muscles perform an important function throughout a woman’s life. They provide fixation and maintenance of the pelvic organs, stretches during childbirth, ensuring the formation of the birth canal, and are a potential site for the formation of a hernia in the female body. Impaired function of this muscle group can lead to either excessive muscle contraction (chronic pelvic pain syndrome) or excessive stretching (pelvic organ prolapse). The purpose of the study is to assess the morphometr

Abstract:

Pelvic organ prolapse is a chronic disease resulting from a weakening of the musculoskeletal apparatus of the pelvic organs. For the diagnosis of this pathology, it is insufficient to conduct only a clinical examination. An effective diagnostic tool is the method of dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the pelvic floor, which allows a comprehensive assessment of the anatomical and functional characteristics of the walls of the pelvis and pelvic organs. The aim of the study was to analyze the literature data on the possibilities and limitations of using dynamic MRI in pelvic organ prolap

Pelvic floor dysfunction disease (PFD) is a common pelvic organ dysfunction disease in the clinic of obstetrics and gynecology. Its cause is mainly the damage, defects and dysfunction of the pelvic floor support structure. Not only is the pathogenesis complicated, but also various symptoms coexist, which seriously affects the physical and mental health of female patients. Mechanical injury of the pelvic floor fascia tissue and levator ani muscles is the anatomical basis of PFD after birth; early postpartum pelvic floor examination and treatment can prevent and control the occurrence or develop

The topic of pelvic floor assessment is increasingly attracting attention from gynaecologists, colorectal surgeons, urologists and physiotherapists. This is not surprising, many women who have given birth naturally are affected by pelvic floor trauma, and so are their partners. Health professionals deal with the eventual consequences of such trauma, especially pelvic organ prolapse and faecal incontinence.

Abstract Pelvic floor hiatus (PFH) is the pelvic floor passage through which the pelvic organs pass. Proper PFH closure is essential to maintaining normal pelvic organ support. PFH can be explored with urogenital hiatus or levator hiatus, according to different anatomical definitions. Factors affecting PFH include age, ethnicity, body mass index, levator ani muscle integrity, resting tone, and contraction force of pelvic floor muscle. The ineffectiveness of PFH to stay adequately closed is not only associated with pelvic floor disorders including pelvic organ prolapse (POP) but also accountabl
