9 PELVIC ORGAN PROLAPSE Introduction Pelvic organ prolapse refers to the herniation of pelvic organs through the vagina due to loss of pelvic support. This may involve one or more pelvic organs including Uterus Anterior vaginal wall (urethrocele, cystocele) Posterior vaginal wall (rectocele) Peritoneum with or without small bowel involvement (enterocele) Post-hysterectomy prolapse Uterine prolapse has the cervix at its leading edge. This in turn may pull down the vagina (uterovaginal prolapse) Grading using the pelvic organ prolapse quantification (POPQ) system: The four stages of uterine prolapse Stage 1- the most distal portion of the prolapse is >1cm above the level of the hymen Stage 2 the most distal portion of the prolapse is <1cm proximal or distal to the hymen Stage 3 the most distal portion of the prolapse is >1cm below the hymen but protrudes no further than 2cm less than the total length of the vagina Stage 4 complete eversion of the vagina Vaginal prolapse is classified according to the region of the vaginal wall affected Cystocele involves the upper anterior vaginal wall Urethrocele involves the lower anterior vaginal wall Rectocele involves the lower posterior vaginal wall Enterocele involves the upper posterior vaginal wall Post hysterectomy vaginal prolapse is defined as the descent of the vaginal cuff scar below a point that is 2cm less than the total length above the plane of the hymen. Conservative management of pelvic organ prolapse includes the use of supporting vaginal pessaries. A pessary is a device inserted into the vagina to support the walls and related pelvic organs (Hay-Smith et al 2009). Pessaries restore prolapsed pelvic organs to their normal position, relieving most symptoms. They can significantly improve the quality of patients lives. Page 9 of 15
10 Purpose Currently, there is little evidence on which to base treatment of women with pelvic organ prolapse through the use of pessaries. There is no consensus on the use of different types of device, the indications, nor the pattern of replacement and follow up care (Adams et al 2004). The aim of this guideline is to offer a standardised approach to assessing women with pelvic organ prolapse following the Liverpool Map of Medicine pathway managing women requiring fitting/ replacement of ring pessaries following the Liverpool Women s Hospital Guideline First Visit for Assessment of Pelvic Organ Prolapse At the first visit the following need to be known: Age Can she see or feel the vagina or cervix protrude through the vaginal opening Is there a sensation of bulging, pressure, fullness, or heaviness Urinary symptoms: urgency, frequency, incontinence, voiding dysfunction Lower back pain Bowel emptying difficulties Sexual dysfunction Examination Examine the patient when they are resting and straining in both supine and standing positions to define the extent of the prolapse and to establish the segments of the vagina that are affected (anterior, posterior, or apical). Inspect the tissues for signs of vaginal atrophy. Complete a speculum and bimanual examination to assess uterus size and cervical length. Palpate vaginal mass on digital examination. Identify all pelvic floor defects Conservative Management of Pelvic Organ Prolapse using Vaginal Pessaries Only for women for whom surgery is not appropriate Restore prolapsed organs to their normal position Should discuss the option of pessary use with all women who have prolapse that warrants treatment based on symptoms Pessary use should be considered before surgical intervention in women with symptomatic prolapse Can be fitted in most women with prolapse, regardless of stage or site of predominant prolapse Require changing every 6 months to prevent ulceration of the vaginal vault. If left for a long time there is risk of o Calcium deposition o Erosion o Fistula formation Page 10 of 15
11 Reserved for women who Are physically frail Are unfit for surgery Have declined surgery or have preference for non-surgical management Who have not yet completed their family Ring pessaries tend to fail in women with deficient perineum, who may require shelf pessaries instead such women should be referred into secondary care. Fitting first pessary Sizing of the pessary is often trial and error (McIntosh 2005). Comparing the distance between first and second fingers when fully abducted during bimanual examination, to an approximately similar diameter pessary can be used as a starting point. Doshani et al. (2007) recommends: 1. Ensure patient s bladder and bowel are empty and vaginal epithelium is healthy. 2. The pessary fits well if a finger can be swept between the pessary and the walls of the vagina 3. The aim is to fit the smallest pessary that does not cause discomfort. 4. The patient should be asked to walk around, bend, and micturate to ensure the pessary is retained. A full procidentia will probably gain best support from a shelf pessary or other chosen device. There are occasions where 2 pessaries are utilised to gain support. To fit the ring pessary Confirm details and gain consent for removal and refit of pessary. Check for any change in medication or medical history on each visit. Check whether had any episodes of discomfort, bleeding, increase in discharge or problems with toileting Check whether she wishes to reconsider surgery Ensure happy to proceed with pessary fitting The ring pessary should be coated in a lubricating jelly or if indicated oestrogen cream. Check the patient has no nut allergy before using oestrogen cream Part labia with the non-dominant hand; grasp ring with dominant hand and squeeze to form a narrow oval shape or a twisted figure of 8. Page 11 of 15
12 Gently insert pessary into the vagina, in a clockwise direction in the saggital plane. The most posterior part of the ring should lie in the posterior fornix; with the anterior portion lying immediately behind and above the symphysis pubis. The cervix should be palpable within the central deficit of the ring (if not had previous hysterectomy). There may be a vague sensation of discomfort or irritation from the actual fitting procedure Encourage patient to void after fit as pessary should not dislodge or prevent voiding (once pessary is established then they would not be encouraged to void after each fitting) Ring pessary removal Apply traction to the anterior portion of the ring with first finger and thumb. Whilst rotating the ring; ask the patient to cough lightly this will ease removal. Asking the patient to put her hands under her buttocks or a pillow beneath the hips can help to make the removal of pessary easier Ensure that pessary details are recorded in notes. Aftercare and follow up. There is no consensus about the optimal frequency of care. Routine care is mandatory due to the potential side-effects and complications. Therefore the patient s needs should be addressed individually and reviewed as clinically indicated usual follow up would be between 3-6 months. Patients who wish to consider surgical correction of prolapse will be referred for review by a Consultant Urogynaecologist at the Women s. Fitting a pessary can unmask symptoms of urinary incontinence Complications arising from pessary use Erosion, ulceration, abrasion and contact bleeding of the vaginal epithelium are a common complication of pessary usage. Below is a list of recommended management of this complication It can be minimised by teaching the patient to remove the pessary and re-insert it herself at regular intervals if able to do this Local oestrogen can be used to improve atrophic changes A short term course of topical oestrogen cream/pessaries should be prescribed, with the pessary removed. This will encourage healing of erosions to the epithelia. Page 12 of 15
13 It is also possible to still treat with pessary in-situ depending on severity of erosion and prolapse symptoms. Treat with Gynest cream/ Vagifem 10mcg pessary per vaginum nightly for two weeks then twice weekly for six weeks then review in clinic. If epithelium healthy then can have refit of pessary and routine follow up. Sometimes continued use of gynest/ vagifem pessaries may be required for 3-6 months if treating for symptoms of vaginal atrophy with careful review by clinician. Increased vaginal discharge and or odour are also common it is worth advising on own personal hygiene and if still concerned speak to clinician for advice on symptom control. Ring pessaries tend to fail in women with a deficient perineum, who may require shelf pessary instead These women will need to be referred into the nurse led ring pessary clinic at the Liverpool Women s Hospital Rarely, vesicovaginal, rectovaginal fistula or incarceration of pessary occurs.
