Case Description- A 1-year-old female Domestic Shorthair cat weighing 2.5 kg with one week history of protruding mass from the vulva was admitted. Clinical Findings- The prolapse was complete involving both horns protruding from the vulva and a soft bulging mass was palpable inside the prolapsed uterus. Treatment and Outcome- The prolapsed organ was irrigated with warm saline soluti...

Managing iris prolapse After reading the article by Tint et al., we would like to share some comments and tips about dealing with iris prolapse. First, one principle we obey in iris prolapse is to maintain the anterior chamber pressure at a stable and relatively low level. The goal is to prevent recurrent prolapse and minimize damage to the iris, since we found that with each prolapse and repos...

BACKGROUND One in three women who have a prolapse operation will go on to have another operation, though not necessarily in the same compartment. Surgery can result in greater impairment of quality of life than the original prolapse itself (such as the development of new-onset urinary incontinence, or prolapse at a different site). Anterior and posterior prolapse surgery is most common (90 % of...

PURPOUSE The Authors correlated intraoperative mucohaemorrhoidal prolapse morphology, specimen histology, anal canal length and purse-string height. METHODS Between September-November 2010, 18 patients (9 grade III; 9 grade IV haemorrhoids) underwent stapled haemorrhoidopexy. Mean age was 54 years (range 38-78).Proctoscopic prolapse morphology, anal canal length, pursestring height and extern...

BACKGROUND About 40% of all patients with genital prolapse report stress-incontinence. In about half of the 60% patients that do not report stress-incontinence, occult urinary stress-incontinence can be detected. In these patients stress-incontinence is masked due to kinking or compression of the urethra by the prolapse.In case surgical correction is indicated there are two strategies to manage...

Background: Internal rectal prolapse probably represents the first stage of a progressive anomaly that eventually leads to full thickness external prolapse. Non-surgical treatment modalities like dietary advice and feedback therapy should be used before doing any surgical intervention in such cases. This study focuses on clinical features, pathological outcomes internal prolapse.Methods: The is...

We investigated whether there is an association between anxiety disorders and mitral valve prolapse. We compared mitral valve prolapse prevalence in individuals with panic disorder (n = 41), social anxiety disorder (n = 89) and in healthy controls (n = 102) in an attempt to overcome the biases of previous studies. Our results show no associations between panic disorder or social anxiety disorde...

mitral valve prolapse (mvp) is a relatively frequent valvular abnormality. in both children and adults with mvp, an increased incidence of ventricular arrhythmias has been reported. qt dispersion, defined as the difference in duration between the longest qt interval and the shortest one, for a given set of electrocardiographic leads has been proposed as a sign of regional difference in cardiac ...

the term mitral valve prolapse (mvp) is used for a particular subset of patients with hyperadrenergic dysautonomia. it occurs when part of a leaflet or both leaflets of the mitral valve extend above the plane of the atrioventricular junction during ventricular systole. the adenylate cyclase activity in mvp dys-autonomia was studied by extraction of enzyme from the erythrocytes from 62 normal su...
