Abstract
Nulliparity did not guarantee a normal assessment of levator ani anatomy by our blinded reader, and frequency of injury in this series is somewhat greater than that previously reported for primiparous women. Younger white primiparous women had a better recovery at 6 months than older white women. Subjects experiencing more global injury, in particular to the ileococcygeous, tended not to recover muscle bulk.
