Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) in women includes conditions such as vaginal relaxation syndrome (VRS), pelvic organ prolapse (POP), urinary and fecal incontinence, obstructed defecation, and sexual dysfunction. Etiopathogenesis is associated with disorders of the pelvic floor fixing apparatus that arise due to traumatic childbirth, genetic changes in the structure of connective tissue (polymorphism of the gene for connective tissue enzymes NAT2). Techniques used to diagnose pelvic floor injuries include x-rays, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and ultrasound. In this publication, we presented an overview of the most relevant and recent data on the etiopathogenesis, diagnosis of DTD.
