Abstract
Functional disorders of the pelvic floor are complex phenomena due to anatomical losses within the musculofascial systemand are dependent on innervation and the qualities of connective tissue. Functional disorders of the pelvic floor vary inform and location. Configuration of these disorders determines the clinical presentation including the lowering of pelvicfloor, genital prolapse, rectal prolapse, rectoceles, enteroceles, and cystoceles. The presented recommendations concernthe principles of diagnostics and comprehensive therapeutic management. The objective of surgical treatment consists inrestoration of proper architecture of supportive tissues within the pelvic floor using tension-free procedures and appropriateprosthetic materials. This allows for effective fixation of lowered structures and prolapsing organs.
