Abstract: The use of transperineal pelvic floor ultrasound to evaluate the pelvic floor structure changes in patients with stress urinary incontinence after hysterectomy. Collect 91 patients who underwent total hysterectomy as the case group, and 100 healthy women as the control group. The perineal basin ultrasound was used to detect the pelvic floor structure characteristics and change parameters of the two groups of subjects in the resting state and the Valsalva state. And according to whether the patients in the case group suffer from stress urinary incontinence, the patients were stratified and analyzed. The β measured value, value and BND value of patients in the resting state and Valsalva state of the case group were greater than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The X and D values of patients in the resting state and Valsalva state of the case group were lower than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). In resting state and Valsalva state, the measured β, Rα and BND values of patients with stress urinary incontinence were greater than those of patients without stress urinary incontinence, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). The measured values of X and D were lower than those of patients without stress urinary incontinence and the difference was significant (P<0.05). In the Valsalva state, the α value of patients with stress urinary incontinence was greater than that of patients without stress urinary incontinence, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Compared with healthy women, the pelvic floor structure parameters of women undergoing total hysterectomy have changed significantly, and the pelvic floor structure changes in patients undergoing stress urinary incontinence are more significant. Transperineal pelvic floor ultrasound can more accurately evaluate the pelvic floor structure changes.
