Major levator ani abnormalities (LAA) may lead to abnormal pelvic floor muscle contraction (pfmC) and secondarily to stress urinary incontinence (SUI), prolapse, or fecal incontinence (FI).
A retrospective observational study included 352 symptomatic patients to determine prevalence of LAA in underactive pfmC and the relationship with symptoms. On 2D/3D transperineal ultrasound, PfmC was subjectively assessed as underactive (UpfmC) or normal (NpfmC) and quantified. LAA, defined as a complete avulsion of the pubic bone, was analyzed using tomographic ultrasound imaging.
LAA were found in 53.8% of women with UpfmC versus 16.1% in NpfmC (P < 0.001). Patients with UpfmC were less likely to reduce hiatal area on pfmC (mean 7% reduction vs 25% in NpfmC (P < 0.001)). An UpfmC was associated with FI (P = 0.002), not with SUI or prolapse of the anterior and central compartment.
An underactive pfmC is associated with increased prevalence of LAA and FI.
肛提肌主要异常(LAA)可能导致盆底肌肉收缩异常(pfmC),进而引发压力性尿失禁(SUI)、脏器脱垂或大便失禁(FI)。
一项回顾性观察研究纳入了352例有症状的患者,以确定盆底肌肉收缩功能减退(pfmC)中LAA的患病率及其与症状的关系。通过二维/三维经会阴超声,主观评估pfmC为功能减退(UpfmC)或正常(NpfmC)并进行量化。使用断层超声成像分析定义为耻骨完全撕脱的LAA。
盆底肌肉收缩功能减退(UpfmC)的女性中53.8%存在LAA,而盆底肌肉收缩功能正常(NpfmC)的女性中这一比例为16.1%(P < 0.001)。盆底肌肉收缩功能减退(UpfmC)的患者在盆底肌肉收缩时缩小裂孔面积的可能性较小(平均缩小7%,而盆底肌肉收缩功能正常(NpfmC)的患者为25%,P < 0.001)。盆底肌肉收缩功能减退(UpfmC)与大便失禁(FI)相关(P = 0.002),与压力性尿失禁(SUI)或前盆腔和中盆腔脏器脱垂无关。
盆底肌肉收缩功能减退(pfmC)与LAA及大便失禁(FI)患病率增加相关。
