Abstract
When working in tandem with the anal sphincter, the pelvic floor muscles facilitate both defecation and continence. Therefore, faecal incontinence or blocked defecation are the clinical manifestations of anal sphincter dysfunction. The unintentional loss of flatus, liquid or solid stool is known as faecal incontinence and it is both an embarrassing social problem and a health risk.
Materials and Methods: Between September 2021 to August 2022, at the Department of Radiology, Kamineni Institute of Medical Sciences, Narketpally, Telangana, India. We treat everyone who has faecal incontinence due to an injury to the anal sphincter. Experiment with a Cross-Sectional Design and Prospective Analysis.
Results: For most people, having a vaginal delivery is the primary cause of faecal incontinence. Postpartum faecal incontinence has a complex aetiology, but the most common cause is damage to the anal sphincters. Postpartum may also result from damage to the anal sphincter complex, the puborectalis muscle, or the pudendal nerve.
Conclusion: These patients choose this non-invasive, inexpensive and readily available technique. MRI is useful for secondary fistula and supra and extra levator evaluation. MRI can detect extensions, extent, length, secondary tracks and perianal abscess. TPUS detects perineal descent and rectocele better than MRI. TPUS and MRI detect sphincter abnormalities equally well.
