  • (v. i.) To fall down or out; to protrude.

  • (20) Previous studies have shown that systolic annular nonplanarity can cause apparent prolapse in the four chamber view without actual leaflet displacement above the most superior points of the anulus, and there is evidence for such nonplanarity in vivo.

Prolapsus


Definition:

  • (n.) Prolapse.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) An inversio uteri that possibly relapsed very soon following reposition of an uterine prolapse post partum is presumably the reason of the prolapsus uteri beyond the early puerperal period.
