TO THE TECHNIQUE OF MANAGEMENT OF THE EXTENDED UTERUS AND VAGINA IN THE PHENOMENA OF INFECTION

In the treatment of prolapse of the uterus and vagina, almost exclusive attention has been and is being paid to methods of keeping prolapsed organs in their normal position and to methods of preventing or limiting the size of such prolapse; the question of the techniques that are used in the adjustment of the falling out parts is either bypassed in silence or touched on in passing, without a desire to attach any importance to it. This is to some extent understandable if we remember that the vast majority of cases of prolapse of the genitals proceed without complications that complicate reduction, and in such cases the reduction mechanism is so simple that it is equally accessible to both the doctor and the patient herself.
