Genital prolapse: a legacy of the West?

G M Brieger1, S K Yip, Y M Fung, T Chung.   

Abstract

A retrospective study was undertaken to determine if there has been a change in the incidence of genital prolapse and urinary stress incontinence in Chinese women in Hong Kong. The medical records of 2,312 consecutive patients admitted for major gynaecological surgery for benign conditions in 5 out of 7 major public teaching hospitals in Hong Kong for the calendar year of 1993 were reviewed by way of an audit of all gynaecological operations performed in these hospitals. A total of 578 cases (25%) were identified as having genital prolapse and or urinary problems.
