Abstract
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) in a nulliparous woman is a rare sequela of high-energy pelvic trauma. We report a case of a 26-year-old nulliparous woman who developed stage III pelvic organ prolapse two decades after pelvic ring disruption. Abdominal wall cervicopexy was performed as a primary procedure by her attending local gynecologist. Recurrence occurred in early postoperative period following which she was referred to our institute. Examination revealed 5-cm pubic symphysis widening and stage III pelvic organ prolapse with deficient perineal body. Widened levator hiatus with atrophic pelvic floor muscles were confirmed on MRI. The patient was successfully managed by sacrospinous hysteropexy using predesigned vaginal mesh kit along with anterior colporrhaphy and colpoperineorrhaphy. Mesh exposure detected at the 6th year of follow-up required partial excision of the exposed mesh.Entities:
