Introduction. Usually, during anorectal manometry, only the presence or absence of rectoanal inhibitory reflex (RAIR) is investigated. Studies have reported that a detailed analysis may provide data interest. Our hypothesis RAIR measurement information to detect organic causes (tethered cord, lipoma, etc.) in patients whom functional cause had been previously considered. Objectives. To compare duration manometry between with refractory constipation (RFC) and myelomeningocele (MMC)....
Background: Anorectal malformations (ARM) are infrequent anatomic defects with a prevalence of 1 each 5000 alive newborns. Most the patients repaired this illness have some degree constipation or fecal incontinence. There few reports about manometric studies and biofeedback treatment in anorectal malformations. Objectives: To evaluate our population's functionality late after surgery by manometry; study response to diet, toilet training, and/or biofeedback. Methods: manometry was done 39 ARM...
