title: Recovery from life-threatening pelvic organ prolapse in an 80-year-old Japanese woman: a case report.
abstract: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is common among multiparous elderly women. POP related to obstructive anuria is very uncommon, but can be life-threatening if untreated. In this report, the patient survived from a septic shock with multidisciplinary treatment and was completely cured of POP after tension-free vaginal mesh repair.
