Prolapse of uterus with enterocele

Last edited: 4/10/2026

Overview

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common condition in women. Enterocele refers to the prolapse of the small intestine into the rectovaginal pouch 1.

Diagnosis

  • Pelvic organ prolapse is diagnosed based on symptoms and examination 1.
  • Specific grading systems for POP are not detailed in the provided abstracts.
  • Management

  • Surgical interventions are used for symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse 1.
  • Surgery for POP may be performed with or without procedures to treat or prevent stress urinary incontinence (SUI) 1.
  • The impact of POP surgery on postoperative bladder function, including SUI, is a consideration 1.
  • Special Populations

  • No information is available in the provided abstracts regarding special populations.
  • Key Recommendations

  • Surgical interventions are indicated for women with symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse 1. (Evidence: Moderate)
  • Consideration should be given to the potential for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) to be present following prolapse reduction or to develop after surgery for POP 1. (Evidence: Moderate)
  • The impact of surgery for POP, with or without concomitant or delayed continence procedures, on postoperative bladder function should be evaluated 1. (Evidence: Moderate)
