A medical condition involving herniation of both the vaginal wall and the bladder, combining vaginal prolapse with cystocele.
From Greek 'kolpos' (vagina) + 'kystis' (bladder) + '-kele' (hernia). This compound term demonstrates how medical terminology stacks Greek elements to precisely describe complex conditions involving multiple anatomical structures.
