prolapsus
Prolapsus is a medical term that describes a condition where an organ or a part of the body falls down or slips out of its usual position. It is commonly used in reference to conditions such as rectal prolapse (where the rectum falls out of position), uterus prolapse, or prolapse of the mitral valve in the heart. The term is derived from the Latin word which means 'to fall or slip forward'. Treatment may include lifestyle changes, exercises, surgery, or a pessary, depending on the condition.
