CHAPTER XXV PROLAPSE (PROCIDENTIA RECTI, PROLAPSUS ANI) Prolapse of the rectum signifies the descent through theanus of a portion of the bowel which, under normal condi-tions, belongs above it (Fig. 121). This condition is frequentlycalled prolapsus ani. This designation, however, is incor-rect, because the anus is simply an aperture capable of beingeverted, but not Fig. 121.—Diagrammatic Drawing Sliowing Prolapse of the Rectum. Protrusion of the mucous membrane alone is designatedas partial prolapse, and descent of all the rectal coats is termedcomplete prolapse (Plate XXI). Procidentia recti is commonto both sexes, all ages, climates, and vocations; but is mostfrequently encountered in old people and children and moreoften in women than in men. Indeed, in children proci-dentia is the most common of all the lesions met with in theano-rectal region. The protrusions are variable in size, soft and pliable inconsistence, and velvety to the touch. They have a pyriformshape, and present a slit in their distal end.(382) fego
