Zusammenfassung: | Aim
Three‐dimensional high‐resolution anorectal manometry (3D HRAM) is a new technique that can simultaneously provide physiological and topographical data. Our aim was to assess whether it can identify anal sphincter defects by comparing it with endoanal ultrasonography (EUS) considered as the gold standard.
Method
An anal defect on 3D HRAM was defined as a continuous circumferential area over which the pressure was |
