We recently read with interest the article "Diagnostic approach to faecal incontinence: What test and when to perform?". This is a comprehensive and practical review, which has particular significance for guiding clinicians to improve the examination strategy. Although we appreciate their work very much, based on the in-depth analysis of this research, we found some detailed problems in the article and will give our comments in this letter. If the author can further improve the relevant research, it will be valuable.
