Abstract
Objectives: The purpose of our study was to find the correlation between urethral-anal distance and urinary tract infection (UTI) after surgery for grade III and IV uterine prolapse.
Methods: Cross sectional study of 57 consecutive women who un¬derwent surgery for grade III and IV uterine prolapse Fisher exact test was used to determine independent risk factors.
Results: Eight (14%) women developed a UTI. The risk of UTI was significantly increased in women whose distance between the ure¬thra and the anus was less than 50.27 mm, with PR: (95%Cl): 43.75 (6.05-303.61) and p: 0.001.
