Pouch function assessment with dynamic magnetic resonance defecography after ileal pouch anal anastomosis for ulcerative colitis.

Digestive and Liver Disease
BACKGROUND Ulcerative colitis (UC) patients undergoing ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) will potentially have abnormal pouch function, which seriously affects their quality of life.

Defecography and anorectal manometry

European Journal of Radiology, 1992
In a prospective study anorectal manometry was performed in 160 consecutive patients who were referred for defecography. Leakage of contrast material of standardized viscosity, the anorectal angle (ARA), anal resting pressure (Pr) and squeeze pressure (Ps) were measured and analyzed.

Defecography commode.

Radiology, 1988
A mobile wooden commode was designed and built for use in defecography. The commode is made of 1/2-inch-thick plywood with birch veneer and a solid clear pine seat. Water or copper sheets are recommended for radiation filtration. A radiopaque ruler attached to the commode with a spring enables midline measurements.

Defecography

Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1994
This study was designed to analyze the frequency of different findings at defecography in patients with defecation disorders and see in what way the evaluation could be improved.The reports of investigations in 2,816 patients were analyzed.Twenty-three percent of the investigations were considered normal.

Four-contrast defecography

Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1995
This study was designed to determine the accuracy of physical examination (as judged by four-contrast defecography) for women with pelvic floor relaxation disorders.Sixty-two women (mean age, 59 years) who had obstructed defecation or constipation, vaginal prolapse, urinary difficulty, or pelvic pain underwent four-contrast defecography. Oral, vaginal,

Lessons from Magnetic Resonance Defecography in Obstructed Defecation Syndrome: A Cornerstone for Adequate Surgical Planning

World Journal of Colorectal Surgery
Obstructed defecation syndrome (ODS) is associated with both anatomical and functional pelvic floor abnormalities. Magnetic resonance defecography (MRD) is a dynamic imaging technique that plays a crucial role in assessing these anatomical defects ...

MR defecography in the assessment of anatomic and functional abnormalities in stress urinary incontinence before and after pelvic reconstruction.

European Journal of Radiology, 2020
PURPOSE Magnetic resonance defecography (MRD) was used to evaluate anatomic and functional pelvic floor disorders in women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) before and after midurethral sling (MUS) intervention. METHOD We performed MRD in both SUI

Defecography and proctography

Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1996
Radiographic imaging of dynamic changes within the pelvic cavity and rectum during evacuation has been recognized as a valuable method of assessment. This study was designed to assess the incidence and clinical significance of defecographic findings in patients with possible evacuation disorders.All defecographic studies were reviewed by a single ...
