【 摘 要 】

We have studied 92 patients with fecal incontinence symptoms, from July 2005 to February 2009. They were classified on the Cleveland Clinic Incontinence Score and all of them have undergone on manometric examination. Sex, age, previous surgery, symptomatology, and manometric findings were analyzed. We have concluded that the increase of incontinence symptoms is related to the progressive decrease on resting pressures. The same was not found with squeeze pressures in the studied sample.
