title: Cytoscopic light test to aid in the differentiation of high-grade pelvic organ prolapse.
abstract: It remains quite difficult to distinguish a high-grade cystocele from an enterocele or high rectocele on the basis of physical examination findings alone. We have employed the use of a cystoscopic light test during preoperative or intraoperative endoscopy to assist in differentiating these entities.
