Abstract

Pelvic organ prolapse is a serious gynaecological problem that affects many women at any age. Due to its complex, multifactorial etiology and the overlap of genetic and environmental factors, research on molecular and biochemical changes is challenging. The most important issue is the identification of women predisposed to organ prolapse so that preventive measures can be taken earlier to reduce the risk of prolapse. This article presents the results of research on the genetic component of pelvic organ prolapse.

Keywords:

collagen , gene expression , elastin , SNP polymorphism , pelvic organ prolapse
