Objective: To report the neglected pessary in a patient with pelvic organ prolapse. Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is one of the most important medical challenges in women especially elderly. One of the conservative treatments of symptomatic POP is pessary placement. Case report: A 84-year-old woman, para 10 was referred to female pelvic floor clinic of an academic hospital for vaginal bleeding and neglected vaginal pessary. Vaginal examination in the pelvic floor clinic revealed an entrapped ring pessary in severely atrophic vaginal mucosa with purulent discharge. Conclusion: Although pessary is the first choice and one of the best conservative treatment for pelvic organ prolapse, it shouldn’t be used for poor cooperative patient who cannot comply with regular follow-up visits which may cause harmful complications.

Introduction: Vaginal pessaries are commonly used to manage pelvic organ prolapse. Pessaries are usually tolerated although some severe complications can occur in cases of negligence, including vesicovaginal and rectovaginal fistulas. Case Presentation: This is a report of two cases of a neglected vaginal pessary and migration into the rectovaginal space to form a vaginal orifice. Based on examinations, no vaginal pessaries in both cases migrated into the rectum. These pessaries were removed by cutting and rotating movements. Finally, the two patients were discharged after surgery without any complications. Conclusions: Neglected pessaries can lead to serious complications. Thus, patient education, local estrogen treatment, and careful follow-ups are important to prevent such complications.
