Riassunto

A comprehensive, practical guide to modern female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery

Modern Urogynecology and Pelvic Reconstruction provides a structured, evidence-based approach to the evaluation and management of urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, overactive bladder, voiding dysfunction, fistulas, neurogenic bladder, and other pelvic floor disorders.

Beginning with pelvic anatomy, continence physiology, and disease mechanisms, the book progresses through clinical examination, POP-Q staging, urodynamic testing, pelvic imaging, conservative treatment, pharmacotherapy, and operative management. Detailed chapters address midurethral slings, fascial slings, colposuspension, anterior and posterior vaginal repair, apical suspension, sacrocolpopexy, hysteropexy, mesh complications, recurrent prolapse, and complex reoperative surgery.

Readers will find clear coverage of:

• Female pelvic anatomy and pelvic floor support
• Urinary continence, micturition, and lower urinary tract physiology
• Stress urinary incontinence and overactive bladder
• Pelvic organ prolapse classification and treatment
• Pelvic floor muscle training, pessaries, and behavioral therapy
• Urodynamics, ultrasound, MRI, and diagnostic testing
• Vaginal, abdominal, laparoscopic, and robotic reconstruction
• Mesh selection, complications, exposure, and erosion management
• Genitourinary and rectovaginal fistula repair
• Neurogenic bladder, urinary retention, and voiding dysfunction
• Postpartum, geriatric, oncologic, and gender-diverse pelvic floor care
• Postoperative management, complication prevention, and quality improvement
• Artificial intelligence, regenerative medicine, tissue engineering, and emerging therapies

The appendices include standardized terminology, a POP-Q recording form, validated pelvic floor questionnaires, sample informed-consent language, and clinical case studies.

Designed for urogynecologists, gynecologists, urologists, pelvic reconstructive surgeons, residents, fellows, physiotherapists, nurses, and other clinicians involved in women’s pelvic health, this first edition connects foundational science with practical clinical decision-making.

An essential reference for understanding, evaluating, and treating complex pelvic floor disorders.
