1852 The Prevalence of Pouch of Douglas Obliteration Depicted on Basic Transvaginal Ultrasound by a Negative Sliding Sign in a General Population

Pouch of Douglas (POD) obliteration can be predicted with a high degree of certainty in patients with symptoms of endometriosis using transvaginal ultrasound (TVS). Studies on POD obliteration and the sliding sign, as part of an expert-guided deep endometriosis (DE) TVS, have always focused on populations in tertiary care centres with high disease prevalence. Our aim is to determine the prevalence of a negative sliding sign on basic TVS in a general population.
