Fecal incontinence is a common but infrequently reported, imperfectly understood, multifactorial disease with far-reaching socioeconomic and psychological implications.

Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2012
Fecal incontinence is a common condition, which leads to impaired quality of life and huge financial cost at an individual and societal level. Recent studies have identified novel and potentially modifiable risk factors. Newer diagnostic modalities are giving more detailed information about underlying disorders, helping to implement targeted treatment.
