    Sammanfattning : Rectal reservoir function and anal pressures were investigated using anorectal manovolumetry in 48 patients with faecal incontinence and in 25 control subjects. Resting and squeeze pressures were lower in patients (p... LÄS MER

  2. 2. Bowel Habits and Functional Constipation - A Longitudinal Birth Cohort Study of Children Born in Gothenburg

    Sammanfattning : Background: Parents often visit health facilities with concerns regarding their child’s bowel function. Data on bowel habits from healthy children is important in establishing what is normal and what is not. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Preoperative staging and radiotherapy in rectal cancer surgery

    Författare :Johan Pollack; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Rectal cancer; radiotherapy; adverse effects; endorectal ultrasound; anorectal manometry; endoanal ultrasound; quality of life; anal incontinence; preoperative staging;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Rectal cancer affects approximately 2 000 people in Sweden every year. The overall survival rate is approximately 50% after five years. During the last decades the survival has increased and the local recurrence rate has declined. This can be attributed to improved surgical techniques and introduction of preoperative radiotherapy.

  4. 4. Sphincter injuries and anal incontinence after vaginal delivery : a clinical and physiological study

    Författare :Jan Zetterström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Obstetric sphincter injury; anal sphincter defect; anal incontinence; perineal body; endoanal ultrasonography; anorectal manometry; pudendal nerve terminal motor latency;

    Sammanfattning : Objective: To investigate the frequency and degree of anal incontinence after vaginal delivery in primiparous women, to determine risk factors for obstetric sphincter tears and to evaluate outcome of primary repair, to evaluate perineal body measurement (PBM) in patients with obstetric sphincter injuries, to study anal sphincter morphology and function before and after delivery, and to evaluate primiparous women who had sustained a sphincter tear or developed anal incontinence after delivery. Methods: Questionnaires regarding anal incontinence before pregnancy, at five and nine months after delivery were used. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Studies of prognostic and functional outcomes in surgery for rectal cancer

    Författare :Mikael Machado; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Rectal cancer; specialisation; defunctioning stoma; pouch; side-to-end anastomosis; function; anorectal physiology;

    Sammanfattning : The order of priorities in surgery for rectal cancer are firstly to achieve local control and cure from the disease, secondly to minimise perioperative discomfort and complications, and thirdly to obtain the best possible bowel function. Rectal tumours can be removed with local surgery but most common are abdominal procedures with or without a permanent or temporary stoma. LÄS MER
