Imaging of Pelvic Floor Reconstruction

Roopa Ram et al. Semin Ultrasound CT MR. 2017 Jun.

Abstract

Stress urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse are 2 common pelvic floor disorders that are important causes of pelvic pain and disability. Mesh and sling placement are some of the surgical treatment options available for treatment of these conditions. In addition to clinical assessment, imaging plays an important role in managing postoperative patients with complications such as recurrent organ prolapse and chronic pain. Role of high-resolution pelvic magnetic resonance imaging with additional advanced imaging techniques, such as magnetic resonance neurography that are invaluable in managing such patients, are discussed in this article.
