Minimal invasive and effective therapy of faecal incontinence with a preanal tape
Journal Title: Pelviperineology - Year 2020, Vol 39, Issue 4
Abstract
Objective: The existing surgical therapy modalities for the treatment of faecal incontinence do not provide satisfactory results. Our understanding of the pelvic floor anatomy and physiological biomechanics of the anal canal are the basis for the theoretical development and practical therapy of faecal incontinence. Materials and Methods: According to the Integral Theory System and similarly to a suburethral sling, a preanal sling is placed under the pelvic floor. Results: The presented operation was successfully done on three patients beyond treatment for their faecal incontinence. Conclusion: We present a simple and functional surgical method for the treatment of faecal incontinence.
