Detailed Description

Pelvic organs prolapse (POP) is defined as the downward descent of the pelvic organs resulting in protrusion of the vagina and/or uterine cervix. POP and overactive bladder (OAB) often co-exist. The International Continence Society defines OAB as "urgency with or without urge incontinence, usually with frequency and nocturia" Of women with symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse, 13-39% experience voiding dysfunction (VD).

The aim of the study is to determine the effect of prolapse surgery on voiding function. The study will include patients who underwent Pelvic reconstructive surgery for advanced pelvic organ prolapse (POP-Q ≥ 3). Data regarding preoperative evaluation, surgical procedure, and post-operative management will be collected. women will receive a follow up questionnaire.

Non-responders will send a reminder after three weeks and if the non-responders still failed to respond were eventually asked to complete a short form comprising questions on urgency and incontinence. This procedure followed guidelines outlined by the local ethical committee. The baseline questionnaire included data on age, urinary incontinence, daytime frequency, nocturia, postmicturition dribble, straining, urgency, incomplete bladder emptying, and hesitancy. Women were asked about leakage caused by coughing or sneezing, moving, lifting, sleeping, sexual intercourse, urgency, and rest. stress incontinence according to the International Continence Society defined as leakage caused by exertion (coughing or sneezing, moving, or lifting) and urge incontinence as leakage associated with urgency.
