This practical guide looks at complex pathophysiologic conditions, pediatric patients, new procedures after artificial sphincter implantation, basic, and complex psychological assessment, new radiologic approaches to patients with complex problems, and the post-operative patient with functional disorders." "Healthcare professionals with an interest in fecal incontinence - colorectal trainees, colorectal nurse specialists, and those involved in coloproctology imaging, will find this a useful reference manual. The book will also assist the clinical physiologist and biofeedback technologist, highlighting standardized treatments and their follow-up, such as those in the field of neuromodulation. The specialties of proctology, gynecology and urology are brought together in one text."--Jacket
