Brief Summary:
This prospective observational study aims to evaluate changes in the vesicourethral angle using transperineal ultrasound before and after colpocleisis surgery, and to assess the relationship of these changes with the development of de novo stress urinary incontinence.
Detailed Description:
Colpocleisis is a surgical method used for treating pelvic organ prolapse (POP) in elderly women who are no longer sexually active. POP may mask stress urinary incontinence (SUI) by affecting urethral support. After colpocleisis, correction of the prolapse may alter the vesicourethral angle, potentially leading to de novo urinary incontinence.
This prospective observational study aims to evaluate changes in the vesicourethral angle using transperineal ultrasound (TPUS) before and after colpocleisis surgery, and to investigate its association with new-onset urinary incontinence. Assessments will be conducted at three time points: Preoperative Visit: Clinical evaluation, POP-Q measurements, PFDI-20 questionnaire, stress test, and TPUS measurement of the vesicourethral angle.
Postoperative 1st Month: General recovery and healing assessment. Postoperative 6th Month: Repeat POP-Q, PFDI-20, stress test, TPUS, and evaluation for de novo SUI.
The study aims to explore the role of TPUS in identifying anatomical changes that may contribute to urinary symptoms following colpocleisis.
