Objective: Anorectal transplantation is a challenging procedure but a promising option for patients with weakened or completely absent anorectal function.
Summary Background Data: We constructed a canine model of anorectal transplantation, evaluated the long-term outcomes, and controlled rejection and infection in allotransplantation.
Methods: In the pudendal nerve function study, 6 dogs were randomly divided into 2 groups, transection and anastomosis, and were compared with a control using anorectal manometry, electromyography, and histological examination.
