Not illustrated. 1913 edition. Excerpt: ...the elongated and protruding cervix is so strangulated by the vulvar orifice that the return of blood is obstructed. The strangulation leads to oedema of the cervix and this aggravates the strangulation. Uterine displacements frequently give rise to backache and tempt a woman to spend many hours on the sofa. Such prolonged recumbency tends to enfeeble her muscular system and may perpetuate the displacement: 1 Lessons in Gynaecology, p. 227. 2 Barnes, Diseases of Women, p. 623.
