“…In the past, electrostimulation is commonly used after the graciloplasty to transform the gracilis muscle from type II to type I (slow-twitching fatigue-resistant bers), which allows the gracilis muscle to work as a new sphincter, and maintain a sustained contraction [7]. However, in most of these cases, they only achieved partial continence at best, with continued faecal leakage requiring diapers still, The success of conventional graciloplasty has been less than 50% mainly due to muscle fatigue and the inability of patients to voluntarily contract the transposed muscle 5 .Gohil et al described the use of a single gracilis muscle wrapped around the anus in a "alpha", "epsilon", and "gamma" con guration, and showed that satisfactory continence was achieved in 76.4% of the patients in adynamic gracilis reconstruction [7]. Rouanet et al used a gamma con guration for each gracilis muscle, and xed both muscles to each other to create a double gracilis wrap.…”
