Malpractice Introduction: Cystocele Cystocele: Bladder falls down into the vagina. Cystocele: A cystocele (SIS-tuh-seal) occurs when the wall between a woman's bladder and her vagina weakens and lets the bladder droop into the vagina. This condition may cause discomfort and problems with emptying the bladder. In some women, a fallen bladder stretches the opening into the urethra, causing urine leakage when the woman coughs, sneezes, laughs, or does any action that puts pressure on the bladder. So a bladder that has dropped from its normal position may cause two kinds of problemsunwanted urine leakage and incomplete emptying of the bladder. Researching symptoms of Cystocele: Further information about the symptoms of Cystocele is available including a list of symptoms of Cystocele , or alternatively return to research other symptoms in the symptom center Treatments for Cystocele: Various information is available about treatments available for Cystocele , or research treatments for other diseases.

But according to Lily Arya, MD , a urogynecologist at Penn Health for Women, you're not alone and effective treatments are available. What are Urogynecologic Disorders? At almost every stage of life, women might experience pain or dysfunction in the urogynecologic area, which includes the uterus, cervix, vagina, bladder and rectum. In addition to incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse, common disorders include painful bladder syndromes such as interstitial cystitis and recurrent urinary infections. The Impact of Pregnancy and Childbirth Pregnancy and childbirth can stretch or damage tissues that support the pelvic organs. As a result, many women suffer from urogynecologic problems both while carrying and after delivering their babies. It's not uncommon to have trouble holding your urine, especially during exercise or physical exertion. Another common condition is uterine prolapse, often described as a dropped uterus, fallen bladder or bulging rectum. Prolapse results when the ligaments holding the uterus in place stretch or break. The uterus moves out of place and can protrude through the vagina.

Neobladders For Women Until recently continent neobladders - which retain normal voiding function through the urethra - were rarely offered as an option for women, mainly due to the perceived risk of local tumor recurrence and urinary incontinence. The pathologic implications of preserving the female urethra had not been well studied. Recent studies have addressed both of these issues, resulting in a better understanding of the continence mechanism in women as well as a better understanding of the risk factors for urethral tumor involvement in women with bladder cancer. Consequently, orthotopic lower urinary tract reconstruction has become an accepted option for women undergoing cystectomy. The concern of an elevated risk of urinary incontinence has proved to be unfounded; in fact the major concern is an increased risk of urinary retention with approximately 20% of women requiring long-term intermittent catheterization. The perceived high risk of local recurrence has been shown to be false in carefully selected women whose tumors

One of the first steps may be urodynamic testing to find precisely what the problem is. Urinary tract Several muscles, organs, and nerves are involved in collecting, storing, and releasing urine. The kidneys form urine by filtering wastes and extra water from the bloodstream. The ureters are tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Normal urine flow is one way. If urine backs up toward the kidneys, infections are more likely. The bladder, a hollow muscular organ shaped like a balloon, sits in the pelvis and is held in place by ligaments attached to other organs and to the pelvic bones. The bladder stores urine until you are ready to empty it. It swells into a round shape when it is full and gets smaller as it empties. A healthy bladder can hold up to 16 ounces (2 cups) of urine comfortably for 2 to 5 hours.

Injury Disease Nutrition Poison ... Prevention Stress incontinence Definition: Stress incontinence is an involuntary loss of urine that occurs during physical activity, such as coughing, sneezing, laughing, or exercise. Stress incontinence is a bladder storage problem in which the strength of the urethral sphincter is diminished, and the sphincter is not able to prevent urine flow when there is increased pressure from the abdomen. Stress incontinence may occur as a result of weakened pelvic muscles that support the bladder and urethra, or because of malfunction of the urethral sphincter. Prior trauma to the urethral area, neurological injury, and some medications may weaken the urethra. Sphincter weakness may occur in men following prostate surgery or in women after pelvic surgery. Stress incontinence is often seen in women who have had multiple pregnancies and vaginal childbirths, or who have pelvic prolapse (protrusion of the bladder, urethra, or rectal wall into the vaginal space), with cystocele, cystourethrocele, or rectocele. Studies have documented that about 50% of all women have occasional urinary incontinence, and as many as 10% have frequent incontinence. Nearly 20% of women over age 75 experience daily urinary incontinence.

Health Information Urology Home Page Urology is the branch of medicine concerned with the urinary tract in both genders, and with the genital tract or reproductive system in the male. Urogenital is a word that refers to the urinary and genital organs. The medical specialty of Obstetrics and Gynecology specializes in the reproduction (genital) system of females. Nephrology is the medical specialty concerned with the kidneys. According to the National Kidney Foundation, kidney and urologic diseases affect more than 20 million people. More than 70,000 US adults die each year from kidney failure. The number of people affected by these diseases is expected to grow as the populations of older adults and racial and ethnic minorities, groups disproportionately affected by the diseases, increase. The most serious and debilitating of kidney and urinary tract diseases includes end-stage renal disease (ESRD); kidney stone disease; urinary incontinence; benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH); interstitial cystitis; urinary tract infection; and polycystic kidney disease. Other diseases also have a tremendous impact on the disability and death associated with kidney and urologic diseases, including diabetes and hypertension.
