  • (18) The pathogenesis of secondary enterocele following previous uterine surgery was that at times the pre-existent enterocele had not been observed and the space between the uterosacral ligament and the rectum not been closed, or the patients had vaginal hysterectomies and anterior and posterior colporrhaphies, or the patients had previous uterine suspensions or abdominal hysterectomies.
  • (19) A 25-year-old patient with a neovagina created by self-dilatation developed complete prolapse of the neovagina with an enterocele.
  • (20) No complications of this intervention were observed and the discomfort due to enterocele disappeared in all of the patients during the follow-up period which averaged 11 months (range 1-24 months).

Intestinal


Definition:

  • (a.) Of or pertaining to the intestines of an animal; as, the intestinal tube; intestinal digestion; intestinal ferments.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Intestinal dilatation seemed in all cases a response to elevated CO2 only.

  • (11) The intestinal cells are filled with concentric spherules, and the intestinal lumen is reduced.
  • (12) Dietary factors affect intestinal P450s markedly--iron restriction rapidly decreased intestinal P450 to beneath detectable values; selenium deficiency acted similarly but was less effective; Brussels sprouts increased intestinal AHH activity 9.8-fold, ECOD activity 3.2-fold, and P450 1.9-fold; fried meat and dietary fat significantly increased intestinal EROD activity; a vitamin A-deficient diet increased, and a vitamin A-rich diet decreased intestinal P450 activities; and excess cholesterol in the diet increased intestinal P450 activity.
