The increase in fat tissue thickness may indicate that obesity may play a role in the etiology of middle and anterior compartment prolapsus, but it can be interpreted that the effect of obesity on the posterior compartment prolapsus and SPFS is not so apparent.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:To present the clinical and radiological findings of cases evalua- ted by magnetic resonance (MR) defecography; to evaluate the relationship between pelvic floor prolapsus (PFP), spastic pelvic floor syndrome (SPFS) and thicknesses of fat tissue and puborec- tal muscles.
📊
Key Findings & Data:MR defecograms of the patients evaluated between September 2015 and September 2017 were investigated retros- pectively.

Abstract

To present the clinical and radiological findings of cases evalua- ted by magnetic resonance (MR) defecography; to evaluate the relationship between pelvic floor prolapsus (PFP), spastic pelvic floor syndrome (SPFS) and thicknesses of fat tissue and puborec- tal muscles. MR defecograms of the patients evaluated between September 2015 and September 2017 were investigated retros- pectively. PFP, involved compartment, severity of PFP (minimal, moderate, advanced), rectocele, invagination, enterocele and spastic pelvic floor syndrome; thickness of suprapubic, presacral, and pre-rectus abdominus fat tissues, right and left puborectal muscle thicknesses were measured. The correlations among PFP subgroups (anterior, middle, posterior); the relationship between the severity of PFP, and thickness of suprapubic, presacral and pre-rectus abdominus fat tissue was analyzed by Spearman’s cor- relation test. In the groups with and without spastic pelvic floor syndrome, thickness of suprapubic, presacral, and pre-rectus ab- dominus fat tissue and thickness of right-left puborectal muscle were compared by T-test. Of the 63 cases (mean age 45, 49 fema- le, 14 male), 62 posterior, 35 middle, and 36 anterior compart- ment prolapses; 55 rectoceles, 28 invaginations, 3 enteroceles, 1 hypermobile urethra and 19 cases of SPFS were detected. There was a strong correlation between the middle and the anterior compartment prolapsus. There was a statistically significant cor- relation between middle compartment and rectus abdominalis anterior fat tissue thickness and between anterior compartment and rectus abdominus anterior fat tissue thickness. In addition, the suprapubic fat tissue in the SPFS group was thinner. The strong correlation between the middle and anterior compart- ment prolapses can indicate that the anterior compartment is ea- sily affected when middle compartment is involved. The increase in fat tissue thickness may indicate that obesity may play a role in the etiology of middle and anterior compartment prolapsus, but it can be interpreted that the effect of obesity on the posterior compartment prolapsus and SPFS is not so apparent.

Özet

Manyetik rezonans (MR) defekografi ile değerlendirilen olgula- rın klinik ve radyolojik bulgularını sunmak; pelvik taban sarkması (PTS) ve spastik pelvik taban sendromu (SPTS) ile yağ dokusu ka- lınlıkları ve puborektal kas kalınlıkları arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlen- dirmek; PTS alt gruplarının ilişkisini değerlendirmek amaçlandı. Eylül 2015-Eylül 2017 tarihleri arasında MR defekografi ile değer- lendirilen hastalarda retrospektif olarak PTS, sarkmanın hangi kompartmanda olduğu, sarkmanın düzeyi (minimal, orta, ileri), rektosel, invajinasyon, enterosel ve SPTS bulguları değerlendi- rilerek suprapubik, presakral ve rektus abdominus kası anterio- rundaki yağ dokusu kalınlıkları, sağda ve solda puborektal kas kalınlıkları ölçüldü. PTS alt gruplarının (ön, orta, arka) birbirleri ile olan ilişkisi; PTS şiddeti ile suprapubik, presakral ve rektus ab- dominus kası anteriorundaki yağ dokusu kalınlığı arasındaki ilişki Spearman korelasyon testi ile analiz edildi. SPTS olan ve olmayan grupta suprapubik, presakral ve rektus abdominus kası anterio- rundaki yağ dokusu kalınlığı ve sağ-sol puborektal kas kalınlık- ları T testi ile karşılaştırıldı. Altmış üç olguda (ortalama yaş 45; 49 kadın, 14 erkek olgu), 62 arka, 35 orta ve 36 ön kompartman sarkması; 55 rektosel, 28 invajinasyon, 3 enterosel, 1 hipermo- bil üretra, 19 olguda SPTS izlendi. Orta kompartman ile ön kom- partman sarkması arasında kuvvetli bir korelasyon bulundu. Orta kompartman ile rektus abdominus kası anteriorundaki yağ doku- su kalınlığı arasında ve ön kompartman ile rektus abdominus kası anteriorundaki yağ dokusu kalınlığı arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı korelasyon saptandı. Ayrıca SPTS grubunda suprapubik yağ dokusu daha ince idi. Orta ve ön kompartman sarkması ara- sındaki güçlü korelasyon, problemin orta kompartmana geçince ön kompartmanı tutmasının kolay olduğunu gösteriyor olabilir. Yağ dokusu kalınlığının artışı orta ve ön kompartman sarkmasın- da etiyolojide obezitenin rol oynayabileceğini göstermekle bir- likte, arka kompartman sarkması ve SPTS’de obezitenin etkisinin belirgin olmadığı şeklinde yorumlanabilir.
