Presentation
Abstract Internal iliac artery aneurysms (IIAAs) are rare and their concealed location in the pelvis presents a diagnostic challenge. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
A feeling of rectal fullness, discomfort or of incomplete evacuation on bowel movements may be present if prolapse occurs with straining. Prolapsed haemorrhoids may present with a history of a lump at the anal verge. [patient.info]
Inguinal adenopathy may be present. As opposed to HPV, condyloma latum from secondary syphilis in the perianal region presents with flat pink or brown lesions. Anal ulcers heal spontaneously within 3-4 weeks. [ahcmedia.com]

Treatment

He didn't want to tell me about how uncomfortable it is because he's scared of the treatment. What treatment will he need? Answers Most prolapsed hemorrhoids spontaneously reduce or can be encouraged to reduce through self-care. [care.com]

Prognosis
Long term side effects and prognosis following rectal prolapse surgery The prognosis after surgery varies wildly, depending on a number of factors. Incontinence or infection are both potentially severe side effects of any surgery in this area. [hemorrhoidshemroids.com]
For hemorrhoids related to constipation, the prognosis is also good, provided you make the necessary changes to your diet and lifestyle. [womenshealthmag.com]
