Summary

There is a strong need for a better, simplified and informative applicable classification system that should be used to speak a common descriptive language among health care providers that treat POP.

The aim of our study is to test our proposed system, assess its validity and value in comparison to the widely used current system (POP-Q).

Conditions

  • Pelvic Organ Prolapse
  • Prolapse
  • Prolapse, Vaginal

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Prolapse scoring system

A FIXED APCD classification system : A: Associated symptoms: FIXED: F: frequency I: infection X: sex problems E: everted mass(external protrusion of mass from the valva as PV lump sensation ,heaviness,itching and ulceration) D: digitation(patient need to digitate to complete the act of micturation or defecation) APCD: A: Dependent point on anterior wall. P: Dependent point on posterior wall. C: Cuff point either cervix or vault. Distance to hymen in centimeters (minus above or plus below) after pushing the opposite wall during maximal straining D: Dimensions; base diameter of vestibule/ perineal length. The staging system will be interpreted as follows: Normal: A-3 P-3 C-8 D 2/2 Stages: 0: No prolapse. A/P-2 OR C-7 to C-2 A,P or C-1 to +1 A,P or C ˃ +1 X component: (alone or with any stage): Dimension disruption: ˃2 or \<2
