WHAT IS PELVIC ORGAN PROLAPSE?
 Pelvic organ prolapse occurs when the muscles
and tissues supporting the pelvic organs such as
uterus, bladder, vagina, small bowel or rectum
become weak or loose.

 These organs are said to prolapse if they descend


into or outside of the anus.

 Usually, found in women.

CAUSES OF POP
 Child Birth

 Old age or post menopausal women

 Obesity or increased weight is one of the causes of POP.

support.

 Chronic cough or constipation increases the abdominal pressure on


the organs and pushes them down.

 Repeated heavy lifting

 Injury to pelvic floor due to surgery or delivery.

TREATMENT OF PELVIC ORGAN PROLAPSE
Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy: Pelvic muscle
exercises can improve pelvic floor muscles but no
improvement can be seen in pelvic organs.

 Kegels Exercise: At Healing Hands Clinic, a


dedicated Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist will train you
in the right technique of performing this exercise.

 BIOFEEDBACK: This is a technique that gives


information on how well pelvic muscles are
contracting. The message or 'feedback' can help
improve awareness and control of pelvic floor muscles.

TREATMENT OF PELVIC ORGAN PROLAPSE

 Pelvic Organ Prolapse Suspension Surgery:


In this procedure, a Y-shaped mesh is placed laparoscopically
to lift the vaginal wall. Lifting of the vaginal wall corrects the
associated bladder prolapse ( cystocele ) and rectal prolapse (
rectocele ). This procedure takes about 40-60 minutes and the
patient is hospitalized for about 48 hours.

 At Healing Hands Clinic, Dr Ashwin Porwal treats


patients of pelvic organ prolapse with this advanced technique
made popular by the world renowned Colorectal surgeon, Dr.
Antonio Longo ( Italy ).Dr. Porwal has mastered the
technique from Dr. Longo himself, and he was the first
to perform this surgery in India.
