enterocele

General anesthesia is usually used for repair of a rectocele or enterocele.

A rectocele or an enterocele can be present at birth (congenital), though this is rare.

Surgical repair may relieve some, but not all, of the problems caused by a rectocele or enterocele.

Risks of rectocele and enterocele repair are uncommon but include:

You can control many of the activities that contributed to your rectocele or enterocele or made it worse.

Prolapse of the small bowel is called enterocele.

An enterocele is a protrusion of the small intestines and peritoneum into the vaginal canal.

A vaginal vault prolapse often accompanies an enterocele.

Rectocele and enterocele formation may occur together, especially if you have had surgery to remove the uterus (hysterectomy).

Defecography may demonstrate associated conditions like cystocele, vaginal vault prolapse or enterocele.

An enterocele may not cause symptoms until it is so large that it bulges into the midpoint of the vaginal canal.

Suspected conditions such as internal rectal intussusception, enterocele, anismus, rectocele or sigmoidocele.

A rectocele or an enterocele may become large or more obvious when you strain or bear down (for example, during a bowel movement).

Rectocele and enterocele often occur with other pelvic organ prolapse, so tell your doctor about other symptoms you may be having.

Pelvic organ prolapse (usually, enterocele).

The support hernias include: vault prolapse, enterocele, cystocele, rectocele and uterine decensus.

A small bowel prolapse (enterocele) occurs when the tissues and muscles that hold the small bowel in place are stretched or weakened.

Therefore intestinal loops may apply pressure to this wall, causing a condition known as enterocele, which presents as an outpouching on the posterior vaginal wall.

Both STARR and PPH are contraindicated in persons with either enterocele or anismus.

Enterocele & Sigmoidocele Enterocele is a prolapse of peritoneum that contains a section of small intestine.
