Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common clinical entity that can have a significant impact on a patient's quality of life secondary to symptoms of pelvic pressure, vaginal bulge, urinary and bowel dysfunction, or sexual dysfunction. It is highly prevalent, with roughly 13% of women undergoing surgery for prolapse in their lifetime. Vaginal prolapse is diagnosed by history and physical examination. Additional testing may be indicated for evaluation of bowel and bladder symptoms. On examination, prolapse can represent descent of the anterior vaginal wall, vaginal apex (cervix/uterus or vaginal cuff scar after hysterectomy), or posterior vaginal wall, although it represents a combination of these in many cases. Treatment options for POP include observation, pelvic floor physical therapy, pessary use, and surgery. In patients with asymptomatic POP, observation is typically used. In those not desiring or medically unfit for surgery, pessaries are an effective nonsurgical option. When it is indicated, surgery can be performed through transvaginal, laparoscopic/robotic, or open approaches, using either the patient's own tissue or mesh augmentation. Deciding between these is based on the compartments involved, extent of prolapse, medical and surgical comorbidities, differences in durability and risk between operations, and shared decision-making with the patient. Here, we review pertinent clinical considerations in the evaluation and management of POP.
