Diagnosis of disturbances of continence and defecation [PDF]
Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1984 Defecography was performed in 60 patients with disorders of continence or defecation in whom previous investigative procedures had not revealed any abnormality that could explain the disorder. A correct diagnosis was made in 47 patients (78%). Defecography appears to be a suitable procedure to detect functional disturbances of defecation.

Defecation is a reflex provoked through a sacral arc by distention of the rectum. In infancy, the evacuation of the rectum occurs reflexly. The development of the control over defecation reflex is associated with the growth of inhibition over it. The cerebral cortex cannot only inhibit the reflex but can also initiate it when suitable circumstances are

Defecation-induced bronchospasm
The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2000Acute asthma exacerbations are common. Patients with asthma experience symptoms in response to a wide variety of stimuli, and identifying the precipitating cause may be useful in guiding treatment and preventing future attacks. A case of asthma exacerbation occurring during multiple defecations is reported.

Studies on the Defecation Reflex in Man
Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1972In patients with cecostomies and in patients with urinary bladder substitutes obtained from either the sigmoid colon or the cecum, the motor activity in different parts of the large bowel was recorded with the aid of open tip tubes and a pressure-recording apparatus after administration of a contact laxative (Dulcolax®).

In-Utero Defecation: Fact or Fiction?
European Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1999An experimental study was performed to investigate the gastrointestinal motility and in-utero defecation by radionuclide techniques. Forty-eight New-Zealand white rabbit fetuses at 25 days' gestation (fullterm, 31 to 32 days) were divided into two groups as A (n: 24) and B (n: 24).

Obstructed Defecation Syndrome
2020Obstructed defecation syndrome (ODS) is a broad term, and it is usually associated with “difficulty in evacuation”, but frequently also with defecatory dysfunction and/or constipation. These disorders are frequently encountered in clinical practice and it is estimated to affect about 20% of the population.

Streamlining the management of defecation disorders
Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1990Obstinate constipation is a frequent but elusive gastrointestinal symptom. Increased understanding of defecation physiology and recent availability of simple, ready-to-use tools have increased specificity of both diagnosis and treatment. This patient series includes over 700 severely constipated patients with over 70 percent overall therapeutic success.

Obstructed Defecation Syndrome
2014Obstructed defecation syndrome (ODS) is a term used to describe the whole complex of mechanical and functional disorders leading to difficult or inadequate rectal emptying. ODS or anorectal outlet obstruction is typically seen in middle-aged, multiparous women. Prevalence ranges from 3.4% in the general population up to 23% in middle-aged women [1, 2].

Physiology of Continence and Defecation
2020The mechanism of maintenance of continence and defecation is complex and multifactorial. The anatomical and anorectal physiological correlations have allowed a better understanding of the diseases that involve the structures of the rectum and anus and their functional alterations.
