Female patients with fecal incontinence who underwent overlapping anterior sphincter repair between June 1998 and May 1999 were preoperatively evaluated with: > Anal manometry > Electromyography and pudendal nerve terminal motor latency > Endosonography

11. OVERLAPPING SPHINCTEROPLASTY Why do we preserve the scar? > Continence was assessed by standardized scoring from 0 to 20 both before and after surgery > The intraoperative ultrasound was performed at the end of the operation with a 120 0 intrarectal transducer
