Abstract

About one-third of chronically constipated patients have an evacuation disorder, and dyssynergic defecation is a common cause of the pelvic evacuation disorder. In dyssynergic defecation, the coordination between abdominal and pelvic floor muscles during defecation is disrupted and patients cannot produce a normal bowel movement. The etiology of dyssynergic defecation is still unknown. Although a detailed history taking and a careful examination including digital rectal examination could be useful, other modalities such as anorectal manometry, balloon expulsion test and magnetic resonance or conventional defecography are necessary for the diagnosis. Biofeedback therapy is one of the most effective and safe treatments. Here, we provide an overview of dyssynergic defecation as well as how to diagnose and manage this condition. © 2023 AVES.
