ABSTRACT = {Symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse can afflict up 
to 10% of women. Urinary incontinence, voiding 
dysfunction or difficulty possibly related to bladder 
outlet obstruction are common symptoms. Infrequently 
hydronephrosis or defecatory dysfunction can be seen. 
The management of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) 
should start with adequate assessment of all pelvic floor 
complaints. If a patient is not symptomatic, surgical 
intervention is usually not indicated. While the use of 
a variety of graft materials are available today including 
porcine, dermal and synthetic grafts, that are used in 
some surgical approaches to pelvic organ prolapse, other 
more conservative approaches may prove beneficial to 
many patients. This article describes our approach to 
the patient with pelvic organ prolapse.},
