The feasibility of uterine-vaginal axis MRI-based as evaluation of surgical efficacy in women with pelvic organ prolapse.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The aim of this study was to provide a potential surgical efficacy assessment in the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse (POP).

Methods

A retrospective cohort study was performed on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) imaging data of 16 non-prolapsed (control group) and 30 preoperative and postoperative POP (case group) women from 2019 to 2021 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University. MRI diagnoses and measures of the relevant anatomical points at rest were used to analyze the healthy control data and the data from POP women before and after surgery.

Results

The middle vaginal-PICS line angle (78.12°±15.03° vs. 69.35°±11.51°, 78.12°±15.03° vs. 61.56°±9.58°, P<0.05) and the middle-lower vaginal angle (179.30°±12.96° vs.
