Zusammenfassung

Der Anteil an Patientinnen mit Harninkontinenz und Genitaldeszensus in unseren Praxen und Kliniken nimmt stetig zu. Bei guter urogynäkologischer Ausbildung können viele Beschwerdebilder gut diagnostiziert und zufriedenstellend behandelt werden. Eine Diagnostik mit Erfassung aller Beschwerden und Funktionsstörungen des Beckenbodens unter Verwendung standardisierter Fragebögen zur Lebensqualität und die Nutzung eines Miktionskalenders ist sehr hilfreich. Die subtile klinische Untersuchung mit getrennten Spekula, Provokationstests im Liegen und Stehen sowie eine Sonographie des Beckenbodens sind wichtige Diagnoseparameter. Ebenso empfiehlt sich ein großzügiger Einsatz von Urodynamik und Urethrozystoskopie. Bei der konservativen Therapie sind die lokale Estrogenisierung, eine evtl. Therapie mit Duloxetin oder einem Anticholinergikum sowie ein Beckenbodentraining unter professioneller Anleitung wichtige Bausteine. Bei komplexen Störungen und Rezidivzuständen empfiehlt sich die Hinzuziehung eines urogynäkologischen Spezialisten.

Abstract

The number of patients with stress urinary incontinence and genital prolapse is continuously increasing. An adequate diagnosis and treatment is possible with a high level of expert knowledge. Diagnosis should include all symptoms and disorders of all pelvic floor compartments using various validated questionnaires for quality of life and micturition diaries. Pelvic floor ultrasound and detailed clinical examination with a divided specula and functional tests are the cornerstones of diagnostics. The common use of urodynamics and cystoscopy in clinical practice is helpful. The main points in conservative treatment are local estrogens, medical therapy with duloxetine or anticholinergics and pelvic floor training under professional supervision. In cases of complex pelvic floor disorders or recurrent situations the patient should be transferred to urogynecological specialists.
