Anorectal manometry results in defecation disorders.
Anorectal manometry and suction biopsy were carried out on 47 children with constipation or soiling, or both. Patients were divided into two groups. Group 1 (37 patients): functional faecal retention, group 2 (10 patients): functional faecal soiling without retention. Ganglion cells or normal acetylcholinesterase staining, or both, was demonstrated in all cases. Normal inhibition of internal sp...
متن کاملMinimum standards of anorectal manometry.
Functional disorders of the anus and rectum affect 10–20% of the population. Tests of anorectal function can provide useful information regarding the pathophysiology of disorders that affect continence and defecation or those that cause anorectal pain. Currently, several tests are available for evaluating anorectal function (Table 1). Often, they complement each other, but among the various tes...
متن کاملComparison of High-resolution Anorectal Manometry With Water-perfused Anorectal Manometry
BACKGROUND/AIMS To date, high-resolution manometry has been used mainly in the study of esophageal motility disorders and has been shown to provide more physiological information than conventional manometry, and is easier to interpret. This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of high-resolution anorectal manometry (HRARM) compared to water-perfused anorectal manometry. METHODS Patients who...
متن کاملAnorectal Manometry: Current Techniques and Indications
Anorectal manometry measures the pressures of the anal sphincter muscles, sensation in rectum, and the neural reflexes that are needed for normal bowel movements. This test is mainly performed to evaluate patients with constipation or fecal incontinence but is also useful for pre/post surgical evaluation of anal sphincter tone, functional anorectal pain, pelvic floor dyssynergia and diagnosis o...
متن کاملHow to Interpret Conventional Anorectal Manometry
Anorectal manometry is the most well established and widely available tool for investigating anorectal function. Anal sphincter tone can be quantified by anorectal manometry. The anorectal sensory response, anorectal reflexes, rectal compliance, and defecatory function are also assessed by anorectal manometry. This report will focus on defining parameters for measurement and interpretation of a...
