An enterocele is a protrusion of the small intestines and peritoneum into the vaginal canal.[1] It may be treated transvaginally[2] or by laparoscopy.
An enterocele may also obstruct the rectum, leading to symptoms of obstructed defecation.[3] Enteroceles can form after treatment for gynecological cancers.[4]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
