document Defecation Disorders (Chapter 11, European Manual of Medicine: Coloproctology Second Edition) Popular

By In Defaecation Disorders

Defecation disorders refers to the inability to efficiently and rapidly empty the rectum of its contents on demand. Functional and anatomic abnormalities coexist to give combined symptoms of 'obstructed defecation' a source of discomfort and impaired quality of life. These symptoms include abnormal anal function (anismus), perineal descent, rectocele and enterocele, rectal intussusception, and overt prolapse. Management is based on a detailed assessment of the terminal bowel anatomy and function to identify a cause. Medical treatment and pelvic floor retraining are first-line treatment. Various types of surgical approaches currently designed to correct anatomic abnormalities in order to improve function can be carried out in selected patients. In this difficult area of functional pelvic floor disorders, a multidisciplinary approach as developed in “pelvic floor clinics” is a useful adjunct to the traditional colorectal approach. Providing information to the patient and his/her relatives is essential, especially when surgery is considered.
