Anterior compartment vaginal prolapse, also known as cystocele, is one of numerous types of pelvic floor relaxation that arise from weakening of the endopelvic fascia and herniation of pelvic viscera through the potential space of the vagina. Weakness of the levator fascia results in loss of pelvic floor support and subsequent formation of anterior compartment defects (the preferable term, according to International Continence Society terminology) [1] or cystoceles.
