Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Radiology - Year 2019, Vol 10, Issue 1
Abstract
Background: To describe a new diagnostic tool in diagnosis of stage I and II uterine prolapse on transabdominal ultrasound. Methods: 100 asymptomatic patients were included in the study; in which transverse uterus sign was positive on ultrasound. Result: It was found in our study that transverse uterus sign is a good indicator of stage I and II uterine prolapse on transabdominal ultrasound. The specificity and sensitivity of transverse uterus sign in diagnosing uterine prolapse was 100 % and100 % respectively.
