Stress urinary incontinence: usefulness of perineal ultrasound

Radiologia Medica, 2014
Perineal ultrasound provides the most sensitive assessment of the degree of urethral mobility by measuring the pubo-urethral distance and angle. To evaluate whether these indices may be determinants of success in prosthetic surgery for stress urinary incontinence, we conducted a retrospective study of patients treated with tension-free vaginal tape ...

Possible role of perineal ultrasound in the diagnosis of cystocele

Clinical and Experimental Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2015
Perineal ultrasound has not yet been adequately evaluated in relation to the diagnosis of anatomical descensus of pelvic organs. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to assess whether it is possible to carry out a topographical comparison between bladders in normal seat and prolapsed ones and to quantify the extent of descensus.The authors ...

The Influence of Posture on Perineal Ultrasound Imaging Parameters

International Urogynecology Journal, 2001
A prospective clinical study was carried out to evaluate the influence of posture on perineal ultrasound imaging parameters. One hundred and thirty-two consecutive women presenting with symptoms of lower urinary tract dysfunction were examined by multichannel videourodynamics and perineal ultrasound, both supine and standing.

Perineal ultrasound: determination of reliable examination procedures

Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1996
AbstractThis is a report on the fundamentals of perineal ultrasound examination for female incontinenze. The measurement method described here enabled us to determine the position of the bladder neck, the size of the retrovesical angle β and the occurrence of funnelling.

Pubococcygeal activity on perineal ultrasound in incontinent women

International Urogynecology Journal, 2010
The aim of this study was to investigate the applicability and reproducibility of perineal ultrasound (US) in the evaluation of the pubococcygeal muscle (PCM) activity in urinary incontinent women.Thirty women were assessed twice by two examiners who measured the angle between the lateral bundles of the PCM.

Ultrasound assessment of the perineal body: A scoping review

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology
The perineal body (PB) is a pyramidal fibromuscular structure located in the anterior part of the perineum, between the rectum and the vagina. It serves as a crucial component of the pelvic floor support system, particularly at levels II and III. Current understanding of pelvic floor anatomy is largely derived from cadaveric dissection and magnetic ...

Assessment of Perineal Scars on Translabial Pelvic Floor Ultrasound: A Pilot Study

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, 2022
ObjectiveWe aimed to describe a method for identifying and evaluating perineal scars using translabial pelvic floor ultrasound. We hypothesized that translabial ultrasound can identify a perineal scar and can differentiate episiotomies from spontaneous tears.MethodsThis pilot study is a secondary analysis of data obtained in the Epi‐No® trial. Perineal

Antenatal ultrasound diagnosis of perineal ectopic testis — a case report

European Journal of Ultrasound: Official Journal of the European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology, 2001
Perineal ectopia testis is a rare congenital anomaly with incidence of < 1% of all cases of undescended testes. We report a case of perineal ectopic testis detected by ultrasound at 38 weeks gestational age presenting as an oval echogenic structure located beneath the male fetal genitals.
