Abstract

Objective: We aim to evaluate the effect of diabetes and obesity on pelvic organ prolapse POP in postmenopausal women. Methods: 104 women with POP, ages 49 to 79 were divided as group I non diabetic-non obese , group II non obese-diabetic , group III obese-non diabetic and group IV obese-diabetic . For each group, presence of uterine prolapse, cystocele and rectocele using POP Quantification POP-Q system were assessed. Results: Obesity and diabetes mellitus DM were associated with progression in cystocoele, rectocele and uterine prolapse compared with healthy women p

Diabetes Mellitus ve Obezitenin Postmenopozal Dönemdeki Kadınlardaki Pelvik Organ Prolapsusu Üzerine Etkileri

Abstract

Amaç: Diabetes mellitus ve obezitenin postmenopozal dönemdeki kadınlarda pelvik organ prolapsusuna POP olan etkilerini değerlendirmeyi amaçladık. Yöntemler: 49-79 yaşları arasındaki POP bulunan 104 kadın grup I non-diabetik ve non-obez grup II non-obez ve diabetik grup III obez ve non-diabetik ve grup IV obez ve diabetik olmak üzere 4 gruba ayrılmıştır. Her bir grupta POP-Q POP-Q sistemi kullanılarak uterin prolapsus, sistosel ve rektosel varlığı değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Sağlıklı kadınlarla karşılaştırıldığında obezitenin ve diabetes mellitusun DM sistosel, rektosel ve uterin prolapsus progresyonuyla ilişkili olduğu saptanmıştır p
