[Correction of postoperative fecal incontinence in children].

The results of surgical treatment of II-III degree incontinence of feces in 6 patients previously operated on for anorectal anomaly are presented. Clinico-functional examination permitted topical verification of damage to rectal sphincter apparatus. Sphincterolevatoroplasty with the use of a posterior sagittal approach was performed. The given approach permitted maximum use of the preserved muscular elements of the obturator apparatus. In a number of cases sphincterolevatoroplasty was combined with smooth muscle plasty of the internal anal sphincter from the distal colon. The functional results followed in 5 patients were considered as good and satisfactory ones.
