摘要/Abstract

摘要： 老年女性盆底功能障碍是一类常见疾病,严重影响患者的生活质量。该病主要表现为尿失禁、盆腔器官脱垂、肛门功能障碍等多种临床症状。随着全球人口老龄化趋势的加剧,该疾病的诊疗研究日益成为医学领域的重要课题。目前,尽管已有多种诊断技术被广泛应用,但诊断准确性仍存在不足。本文系统综述了老年女性盆底功能障碍的发病机制,重点介绍了近年来发展起来的先进诊断技术。

Abstract: Pelvic floor dysfunction in elderly women is a prevalent condition that significantly affects patients’quality of life. Clinical manifestations primarily include urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and anal dysfunction. With the accelerating global aging trend, research on its diagnosis and treatment has become a critical focus in medical science. Although multiple diagnostic techniques are now widely adopted, diagnostic accuracy remains suboptimal. This review systematicly examines the pathogenesis of pelvic floor dysfunction in elderly women, with particular emphasis on advanced diagnostic technologies developed in recent years.
