Studies on Accurate Differentiation of Dyssynergic Defecation Patients from Normal Subjects Based on Abnormal Anorectal Angle in MR Defecography

, 2021
Objective: We aimed to study the kinematic indices of the pelvic floor, anorectal angle and the descent of perinea, and the differing movement, in dyssynergic defecation patients in comparison with healthy controls, based on MR defecography.

MR Imaging in Diagnosis of Pelvic Floor Descent: Supine versus Sitting Position

Gastroenterology Research and Practice, 2016
Introduction. Functional disorders of the pelvic floor represent have a significant impact on the quality of life. The advent of open-configuration systems allowed for the evaluation of defecation with MR imaging in sitting position.

Volumetric segmentation analysis of the levator ani muscle using magnetic resonance imaging in pelvic floor function assessment

Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology
PURPOSE: In this case-control study, we aimed to evaluate how muscle volume affects pelvic floor function by analyzing the levator ani muscle (LAM) using volumetric segmentation in addition to standard magnetic resonance (MR) defecography assessments ...

Pelvic organ prolapse is highly prevalent in women with spina bifida

BJUI Compass, Volume 6, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Introduction Women with spina bifida often experience neurological impairments leading to pelvic organ dysfunction, including difficulties with bladder and bowel emptying that necessitate frequent Valsalva manoeuvres. These factors, combined with pelvic floor weakness, may increase the risk of pelvic organ prolapse (POP).
