The association of pelvic organ prolapse severity and improvement in overactive bladder symptoms after surgery for pelvic organ prolapse

Abstract: ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair on overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms in women with POP and the effect of baseline POP severity on improvement in OAB after surgical repair of POP. And we also tried to identify any preoperative factors for persistent postoperative OAB symptoms.MethodsA total of 87 patients with coexisting POP and OAB who underwent surgical correction of POP were included and retrospectively analyzed and postoperative data was ob… Show more

“…A possible explanation would be that older women have more severe damage to nerves and detrusor muscles in the bladder than younger women. However, as with our results, many authors concluded that age was not a predictive factor for persistence of preoperative OAB symptoms after POP surgery . The present study showed that the severity of POP was not a predictive factor for persistence of preoperative OAB symptoms after POP surgery.…”

“…To date, it is well accepted that parity and BMI are not predictive factors for postoperative OAB symptoms after POP surgery . In contrast, it remains controversial whether age and the severity of POP are predictors of postoperative OAB symptoms after POP surgery.…”

“…Surgical repair of pelvic organ prolapse has been shown to improve UUI in the majority of patients. 3 Levator ani pelvic floor muscle injury, sphincteric injury, and/or pudendal nerve injury may be also present in a subset of patients who have concomitant UI, pelvic organ prolapse, and fecal incontinence. 2,17,18 Thus, our finding that increasing UI severity was associated with more distress from prolapse symptoms was not surprising.…”

“…In contrast, Miranne et al [21] found that more women with stage 3-4 POP (35%) had urodynamic DO than women with lower grade 1 or 2 POP (17%). Regardless of the stage of POP after repair, OAB symptoms of urgency and frequency improve similarly in women with stage 1 or 2 POP compared to women with stage 3 or 4 [22].…”
