Forgotten peser ring in the vagina: case report
Abstract
ABSTRACT: An 88-year-old multiparous patient was brought to the clinic by her
relatives because of vaginal bleeding and bad smell. There was no known
condition in his medical history. A hard structure was observed during the
examination. The speculum was observed on the deformed pessary ring attached to
the surrounding vaginal tissue. The patient was hospitalized. The forgotten pessary
ring was cut with an iron cutting tool without damaging the surrounding tissues
and removed from the vagina without any complication. He was discharged with
cure after IV antibiotic treatment. Pelvic examination should be performed
carefully in elderly patient groups considering the possibility of forgotten
pessary.
