Tipyakov, V.V. To the question of the treatment of the bendings of the uterus posteriorly (Medical. Review, No. 17, 1892).

The uterus is mobile and elastic, and retains its position and configuration with some of its ligaments, but most of all with the tension of the abdominal press. Diseases of the uterus itself and the organs surrounding it change its figure and its position in the pelvis. Changing her figure changes blood circulation, her nutrition and causes disorder throughout the body, affecting by a mass of painful phenomena. Particularly severe seizures cause posterior folds of the uterus. The suffering of the uterus and its appendages cause irritation of the peritoneum, more or less significant adhesions with the surrounding organs are obtained, which even more changes the blood circulation and nutrition of the pelvic organs, and this even more leads to bending.
