No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The treatment of fecal incontinence after low anterior resection is problematic, and not always able to increase quality of life. Biofeedback and rehabilitation therapies are harmless and easy to use; thus, generally selected as the initial treatment modalities, however may be effective in a small portion of patients. More complex treatment techniques including sacral nerve stimulation decrease the severity of symptoms, however the implantation of the device is a costly, staged procedure. Little is known about the effectiveness of other techniques such as injectable substances on incontinence observed after low anterior resection. There is no study evaluating the safety and effectiveness of platelet rich plasma (PRP) injection for incontinent patients after low anterior resection.
