Systematic review of surgical options for idiopathic megarectum and megacolon.
TL;DR: Outcome data of surgery for IMB must be interpreted with extreme caution due to limitations of included studies, although colectomy appears to be the optimum procedure in patients with a nondilatedrectum, restorative proctocolectomy the most suitable in those with dilatation of the colon and rectum, and VRR in those patients with Dilatation confined to the rectum.
Risk factors in acquired faecal incontinence
TL;DR: Findings add to evidence that occult damage to the continence mechanism, especially through vaginal delivery and anal surgery, can result in subsequent faecal incontinence, sometimes after an interval of many years.

TL;DR: Rectal intussusception is a common finding at evacuation proctography in both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals, but little information exists, however, as to whether intussedusception morphology differs between patients with evacuatory dysfunction and healthy volunteers.

Rectal hyposensitivity: pathophysiological mechanisms.
TL;DR: Two‐third of the patients with RH on simple balloon distension have elevated rectal compliance and/or diameter, suggesting that impaired perception of rectal distension is due to inadequate stimulation of the rectal afferent pathway, however, a proportion of such patients also appear to have impaired nerve function.
