Is It Useful to Distinguish Type I and Type <scp>II</scp> Avulsions on Transperineal Ultrasound?
Type II avulsion, which is supposed to represent more severe trauma, does not seem to convey any additional risk of symptoms and/or signs of prolapse compared to Type I avulsion. It does not seem to be necessary to distinguish between these two avulsion types on transperineal ultrasound.
