[Ureterohydronephrosis at pelvic prolapse in women]
Abstract:
The study was aimed to examination of prevalence of obstructive complications of the upper urinary tract in patients with pelvic prolapse and evaluation of the effectiveness of their correction using modern reconstructive surgery. Bilateral ureterohydronephrosis was detected in 14 (12%) of 117 patients. In patients with stage IV pelvic prolapse, proportion of patients with hydronephrosis was much higher--22.6%. Transvaginal reconstructive surgery with the installation of synthetic mesh prosthesis according to the Tension free Vaginal Mesh method ensured the restoration of normal anatomy of the pelvic floor and allowed to eliminate obstructive disorders of the upper urinary tract and their complications.
