MEZA MADRID, Diana et al. How to perform and interpret high resolution anorectal manometry. Rev Col Gastroenterol [online]. 2019, vol.34, n.4, pp.404-410. ISSN 0120-9957.  https://doi.org/10.22516/25007440.411.

Anorectal manometry is the most commonly used technique to evaluate anorectal functioning and coordination and detect functional abnormalities of the anal sphincter. In our physiology laboratory we perform approximately 15 high resolution anorectal manometry studies each week. We consider that proper performance and correct interpretation are vitally important. We want to share our high resolution anorectal manometry protocol based on the most relevant literature through this article.

Keywords : High resolution anorectal manometry; dyssynergic defecation; fecal incontinence.
