Abstract

Fecal incontinence is a multifactorial disease. Anorectal physiology studies play an outstanding role in the evaluation of its etiology and severity, the two main factors that constitute the basis for the correct choice of treatment. However, the prognostic role of clinical factors and anorectal physiological tests in predicting the outcome to either conservative or surgical treatment is questionable. © 2007 Springer-Verlag Italia.
