Abstract

Currently, crystallization and strengthening of some demographic paradoxes are observed. The progressive birth rate decrease and the population increase seemed to be mutually exclusive processes until today. Recurrent pelvic organ prolapse, that significantly decreases the patient’ quality of life regardless of the age, represents one of the unsolved problems of modern gynecology. Given this fact, the paper is aimed to discuss the relevance of this issue at present, as well as to describe the advanced verification algorithms of the structural defects associated with recurrent genital prolapse in order to predict progression of the disease at a very early stage.

Keywords: recurrent genital prolapse, risk factors, early diagnosis of genital prolapse recurrence.
