Procidentia as a Cause of Obstructive Uropathy and Acute Kidney Injury.

Pelvic organ prolapse can affect urinary tract function by reducing flow rates and increasing post void residual urine volumes secondary to outlet obstruction. If the diagnosis is missed or left untreated, pelvic organ prolapse can lead to acute renal injury, chronic renal failure or even end stage renal disease. Herein, we present a case of a patient who presented to Albert Einstein Medical Center in Philadelphia, PA with urinary retention and acute kidney injury secondary to complete uterine prolapse, also referred to as procidentia.
