Pelvic Organ Prolapse Association with Iliopsoas Cross-Sectional Area and Muscle Strength in Middle-Aged and Older Women

Younger middle-aged women with POP exhibited reduced iliopsoas CSA and impaired lower-limb balance, potentially reflecting a broader musculoskeletal vulnerability associated with aging and sarcopenia. Although this observational study had no interventions, further research should assess if early muscle weakness detection and targeted rehabilitation can improve physical function in this population.
