The medical complications possible to a surgical buttocks augmentation procedure, the submuscular emplacement of a gluteal implant, include infection, surgical-wound dehiscence that exposes the implant, revision surgery, rupture of the implant, seroma (a pocket of clear serous fluid), capsular contracture, asymmetry of the corrected area ...
Primary sphincter repair is inadequate in most women with obstetric ruptures following vaginal delivery. Residual sphincter defects remain in most and around 50% remain incontinent. If there is a residual sphincter defect following the operation (as demonstrated by endoanal ultrasonography), then the procedure may be repeated.
The empirical evidence supporting this is that ipsilateral (same-side) piriformis hypertrophy is a common image finding in piriformis syndrome, [24] and that botox injections reduce symptoms (by paralyzing a muscle for months the muscle shrinks). A single injury, or many smaller injuries, may predispose the piriformis muscle to fibrosis, making ...
Abdominoplasty or "tummy tuck" is a cosmetic surgery procedure used to make the abdomen thinner and more firm. The surgery involves the removal of excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen in order to tighten the muscle and fascia of the abdominal wall.
A perineal tear is a laceration of the skin and other soft tissue structures which, in women, separate the vagina from the anus. Perineal tears mainly occur in women as a result of vaginal childbirth, which strains the perineum. It is the most common form of obstetric injury. [1] Tears vary widely in severity.
An anal fissure is a break or tear in the skin of the anal canal. Anal fissures may be noticed by bright red anal bleeding on toilet paper and undergarments, or sometimes in the toilet. If acute they are painful after defecation , [ 1 ] but with chronic fissures, pain intensity often reduces and becomes cyclical.
Surgery. Heart surgery may be performed during a heart attack or if other treatment methods don’t work. Some surgeries, like coronary artery bypass grafting, which reroutes blood flow, are major ...
The most common causes are thought to be immediate or delayed damage from childbirth, complications from prior anorectal surgery (especially involving the anal sphincters or hemorrhoidal vascular cushions), altered bowel habits (e.g., caused by irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, food intolerance, or constipation with ...
