Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is an abnormality of the female pelvic anatomy due to events, such as multiple child births, menopause, and morbid obesity, which may lead to weakening of the pelvic floor striated muscles and ...
Vaginal Changes Due to Varying Degrees of Rectocele Prolapse: A Computational Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP), downward descent of the pelvic organs resulting in a protrusion of the vagina, is a highly prevalent condition, responsible for 300,000 surgeries in the U.S. annually. Rectocele, a posterior ...
