Impact of levator ani muscle avulsions on Manchester procedure outcomes: A 5‐year follow‐up study

Although women with levator ani muscle avulsion had lower odds of achieving an optimal anterior compartment outcome, the overall anatomical changes from preoperative to 5 years were similar in both groups. Importantly, avulsion did not impact symptom improvement, patient-reported outcomes, or the need for further treatment. These findings support the Manchester procedure as an effective and durable surgical option for women with POP, regardless of avulsion status.

Abstract

Although women with levator ani muscle avulsion had lower odds of achieving an optimal anterior compartment outcome, the overall anatomical changes from preoperative to 5 years were similar in both groups. Importantly, avulsion did not impact symptom improvement, patient-reported outcomes, or the need for further treatment. These findings support the Manchester procedure as an effective and durable surgical option for women with POP, regardless of avulsion status.
