Abstract

|
Ultrasonography has recently been used in the diagnosis of pelvic floor disorders and is replacing conventional radiological methods. Transperineal ultrasonography can be used as an important diagnostic method for pelvic floor disorders to demonstrate the anatomy of the pelvic floor. This is a minimally invasive procedure providing an extensive perineal view. Pelvic floor organ (including the bladder, uterus, anus and rectum) position, movement, and prolapse can be observed as a real-time imaging and may be used in diagnosis of obstructive defecation syndrome including rectocele, rectal intussusception, enterocele, and NRPR. Imaging of these real movements can lead to a better understanding of the disorders and favorable results can be expected after treatment. Other advantages include low costs and high availability. Finally, transperineal ultrasonography can be helpful in the diagnosis of anorectal or pelvic floor disorders.
