The rectovesical pouch is a space between the rectum and the bladder in men. [1] It lies above the seminal vesicles. [2] It is lined by peritoneum and at its base is the rectoprostatic fascia (Denonvillier's fascia). When a man is upright or supine, it is the lowest part of his peritoneal cavity. [3]
It may occur after cystectomy or hysterectomy. [2] In these cases, the anterior wall of the vagina is weakened or missing due to loss of support from the bladder. [2] On defecography, enterocele is defined as the presence of small bowel between the rectum and the vagina. [3]
The female pelvic floor The male pelvic floor. The pelvic floor is subject to clinically relevant changes that can result in: Anterior vaginal wall prolapse. Cystocele (bladder into vagina) [11] Urethrocele (urethra into vagina) Cystourethrocele (both bladder and urethra) Posterior vaginal wall prolapse. Enterocele (small intestine into vagina)
Common symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction in men include: Difficulty urinating, even when trying to “push” with your muscles Urinary incontinence (involuntary urinary leakage), especially ...
POPs can happen when conditions such as pregnancy, childbirth, and menopause weaken the support structures that normally hold your pelvic organs (uterus, bladder, and rectum) in place.
Cystourethrocele (both bladder and urethra) Posterior vaginal wall prolapse. Enterocele (small intestine into vagina) Rectocele (rectum into vagina) Sigmoidocele; Apical vaginal prolapse. Uterine prolapse (uterus into vagina) [4] Vaginal vault prolapse (descent of the roof of vagina) – after surgical removal of the uterus hysterectomy [5]
Two common causes of this defect are childbirth and hysterectomy. [2] Rectocele also tends to occur with other forms of pelvic organ prolapse, such as enterocele, sigmoidocele and cystocele. [1] Although the term applies most often to this condition in females, males can also develop it. Rectoceles in men are uncommon, and associated with ...
A meta-analysis on the influence of voiding position on urodynamics in males with lower urinary tract symptoms showed that in the sitting position, the residual urine in the bladder was significantly reduced, the maximum urinary flow was increased, and the voiding time was decreased. For healthy males, no influence was found on these parameters ...
