Vectormanometry for differential diagnosis of fecal incontinence

Abstract: Three-dimensional vectormanometry identifies localized pressure deficits in the anal canal, thereby differentiating between sectorial and global sphincter insufficiency.

“…Low pressures indicate an anatomical defect or injured innervation to the anal sphincter. Vector manometry gives additional information on the radial pressure gradient and is therefore thought to be suitable to localize anatomical defects [11]. However, pressure profiles failed to localize anal sphincter lesions in the present study.…”

“…At each assessment an interviewer completed a standardized questionnaire that reported any symptoms of fecal urgency and anal incontinence. Results were evaluated using the Kelly-Holschneider score [11]. Anal manometry, pudendal nerve terminal motor latency (PNTML), and anal endosonography were then performed.…”

“…Analmanometrisch kam es bei unseren Patienten allerdings zu einem geringen Abfall des Ruhe-und Kneifdrucks. Man muû jedoch berücksichti-gen, daû sich die postoperativen Werte noch innerhalb des Normbereichs befanden und bereits die Untersuchung des Analkanals mit einem Speculum zu einem deutlichen Druckabfall im Analkanal führt [7]. Auûer-dem wurde die Analmanometrie bereits 6 Wochen postoperativ durchgeführt, um operationsbedingte Läsio-nen des Schlieûmuskelapparates nachzuweisen bzw.…”

“…B. bei multipler Sklerose, verschwindet der Reflex [37]. Bei der Vektormanometrie wird mittels einer simultanen Mehrkanalregistrierung ein dreidimensionales Abbild der Druckprofile computergestützt generiert, wobei üblicherweise acht Druckaufnehmer verwendet werden [38][39][40]. Der Wert dieser Methode bei der Erkennung von Sphinkterdefekten wird kontrovers diskutiert, kann aber bei Frauen mit geburtshilflichem Trauma komplementäre Informationen liefern [41].…”
