OBJECTIVES: To evaluate whether cystocele type varies with vaginal parity. METHODS: Retrospective analysis of 464 vaginally nulliparous women seen at 2 urogynecology units between November 2006 and November 2019. A control group consisted of 871 vaginally parous women seen between July 2017 and November 2019. Patients underwent a standardized interview, POPQ, urodynamic testing, and translabial ultrasound. On imaging, significant cystocele was defined as bladder descent to ≥10 mm below symphysis pubis. Volume datasets were analyzed offline and blinded against clinical data. RESULTS: Of 5266 women seen during the inclusion period, 464 were vaginally nulliparous. Three were excluded due to missing data, leaving 461. A control group of 871 parous women was generated from patients seen during the last 2.5 years of the inclusion period. Vaginally nulliparous women were presented at a younger age compared to vaginally parous women (P < .001). Symptoms of prolapse were reported in 104 (22%) nulliparae and 489 (56%) parous women (P < .0001). Vaginally parous women demonstrated more bladder descent (P < .0001) and more cystocele (418/871 versus 43/461, P < .0001), with a higher proportion of type III cystocele (cystocele with intact retrovesical angle) (20/43 versus 273/ 418, P < .0001). Cystourethrocele (Green type II) was more common in nulliparae and cystocele type III in parous women (P = .015). On multivariate analysis, these differences in proportions remained significant (P = .049). CONCLUSIONS: Nulliparity was associated with a higher proportion of Green type II cystoceles. Green type III cystocele was more common in vaginally parous women, suggesting that the latter may be more likely to be due to childbirth-related pelvic floor trauma.
