Abstract：
:The objective of this review is to discuss the main goals of pelvic organ prolapse repair. Pelvic organ prolapse symptoms are variable, and prolapse degree does not necessarily correlate with perceived symptoms or other associated conditions including urinary, defecatory, and sexual dysfunction. Treatment for pelvic organ prolapse is based upon symptom bother and patient expectations. There are various surgical approaches to treat pelvic organ prolapse; however, there is no standardized definition of cure or success. Physician goals of pelvic surgery to correct prolapse include restoration of anatomy, resolution of patient symptoms, avoidance of complications and attainment of patient goals. However, patient's expectations may differ, and discussing preoperative goals and setting realistic expectations prior to treatment may guide surgical therapy and improve patient satisfaction.
