Abstract:
Introduction: Genital prolapse is a common condition, affecting women of all ages. The global
prevalence of genital prolapsed is estimated to be 2-20 % in women under age 45 years, but in our
country is estimated 1,7-28 %. The prolapse risk factors include multiple vaginal deliveries, obstetrical
trauma, age, obesity, hysterectomy, collagen quality and smoking. Genital prolapse occurs when the
network of muscles, ligaments and skin that hold them in its correct anatomical position weaken.
Genital prolapse can cause the following symptoms: heaviness or pulling in pelvis, tissue protruding
from vagina, painful intercourse, pelvic pain and difficulties with urination and bowel movements.
Materials And Methods: The retrospective study is based on 102 patients with genital prolapse.
The results was analyzed with Microsoft Excel and Stats Direct Statistical Software Version 1.9.5.
Results: Patients age was 57,93±1,008 years. The patients was divide into two groups, the last
one- 16 patients (15,69%) of women(<48 years), the second one-86 patients (84,31%) of women(>48
years). The average number of births to all women was 2,54±0,08(p<0,001). The incidence of births at
women with genital prolapse on the first group represent 15,68±3,60%, but at the second group is more
frecvently-84,28±3,60% (p<0,001). The postoperative complications was in 5,88±2,32% cases.
Conclusion: Incidence of genital prolapse is higher in older women, who have more than 48
years. It involves screening of old women to diagnose genital prolapse. Births represent one of the
important causes of genital prolapse, observed mainly in old women.
