Comparison of High-resolution Anorectal Manometry With Water-perfused Anorectal Manometry
To date, high-resolution manometry has been used mainly in the study of esophageal motility disorders and has been shown to provide more physiological information than conventional manometry, and is easier to interpret. This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of high-resolution anorectal manometry (HRARM) compared to water-perfused anorectal ...

Long‐term results of the Musset surgical technique in the treatment of recto‐vaginal fistulas
Abstract Objective Recto‐vaginal fistulas (RVF) are a rare pathology, mostly affecting developing countries. They are mainly obstetrical (88% of cases) and have an incidence of 0.5%. Musset's surgical technique in the management of RVF has been the subject of few studies and there is little data in the literature concerning the evaluation of its long ...
