This article presents a review of the current literature on the problem of omission and prolapse of the internal genitalia in women. Patients diagnosed with pelvic organ prolapse need pelvic floor plastic surgery. Currently, in spite of the extensive experience in managing this category of patients, there is still no single and unambiguous approach to the choice of surgical treatment tactics. This review describes the latest information on the etiopathogenesis of pelvic floor supporting apparatus lesions, namely, systemic connective tissue dysplasia as the main development factor. Prospective development of genetic and immunohistochemical marker diagnosis is the key to individual selection of treatment options for this multidisciplinary problem. The results of interventions are characterized by extreme variability in terms of both effectiveness and the frequency of intra- and postoperative complications. The treatment of rare forms of prolapse after surgery for rectal cancer also raises many questions. The current multitude of types of surgical interventions for genital prolapse and variants of pelvic floor defect closure is constantly being modified. To date, there is no universal treatment option, and all available techniques have both advantages and disadvantages, as well as limited application due to the risk of somatic complications, high recurrence rate, and the need for expensive equipment and a highly qualified surgeon. New research is needed, taking into account the current knowledge about the cellular and molecular mechanism of the lesion of the pelvic floor supporting apparatus. All of this will improve the methods of correction of pelvic organ prolapse in both typical and rare forms caused by iatrogenic factors. As a result, this may lead to an improvement in the quality of life of such patients.

Despite the lack of information in the medical literature on endometrioid disease complicated by infectious and inflammatory diseases, past community-acquired pneumonia caused by the new coronavirus infection may cause purulent-septic complications of endometriosis. The effect of the virus on endometrioid cysts was hematogenous in this clinical case. The information presented in this report can help clinicians in conducting differential diagnostics in patients with a history of endometriosis and previous SARS-CoV-2, establishing a diagnosis, as well as determining the tactics of examination and treatment. © Eco-Vector, 2021
