Definition of apical descent in women with and without previous hysterectomy: A retrospective analysis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundWhile normal pelvic organ support has been defined for women with intact uterus, this is not the case for post- hysterectomy vault descent. A recent systematic review found that definitions of apical prolapse are highly variable.ObjectivesTo ...

Laparoscopic cervicopexy for correction of apical genital prolapse in 10 steps: a pilot study

open access: yes, 2021
Introduction: Surgical repair of pelvic organ prolapse is one of the most frequent gynecological procedures, and its frequency is expected to increase as the population is gradually aging. Mesh use in urogynecological surgery should be limited because of

The fossil record stays silent: Confusions and conundrums for hominin pelvis evolution

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The evolution of the hominin pelvis is commonly modeled as a series of stages driven largely by the requirements of bipedal locomotion, reproduction, thermoregulation, and pelvic floor muscular support. These patterns are complicated by variation in canal dimensions in relationship with different changes in overall pelvic breadths. To quantify

Human evolution and the obstetrical dilemma: The pelvic floor hypothesis

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Human childbirth is mechanically difficult because a large‐headed, broad‐shouldered fetus must pass through a comparatively narrow, twisted bony birth canal. Traditional explanations of this “obstetrical dilemma” emphasize the role of bipedal locomotion in inhibiting the evolution of a wider, more spacious pelvis.

The role of pelvic floor ultrasound correlated with pelvic organ prolapse quantification in the assessment of anterior and apical compartments of pelvic organ prolapse

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine
Background Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a gynecological disease significantly associated with older age. A higher prevalence of women with symptomatic POP showed physical and emotional distress, negatively affecting their quality of life (QoL).
