- Abstract:
- After operation for high rectal atresia, incontinence is common. The various operations that are used to cure incontinence can undoubtedly produce considerable improvement. Our own experience and the results published in the literature show that improvement in continence is mainly due to the creation of an elastic barrier that will induce the development of ampullary function in the neorectum. In this connection the mental development of the child is of great importance, as he or she has to become aware of the afferent impulses and act accordingly.
