According to the authors' data the subdevelopment of the anal constrictor followed by sphincter incompetence of the I degree can be treated conservatively by means of electrical stimulation of the perineal muscles together with exercise therapy. Surgical correction-sphincterolevatoroplasty and sphincterogluteoplasty- is required in case of the incompetence of the II and III degree. In congenital abscence of the anal constrictor muscles the obturative function of the rectum can be reconstructed through the replacement of the sphincter by the musculus gluteus maximus graft.

Background: Anal sphincter complex consists of anatomically overlapping internal anal sphincter (IAS), external anal sphincter (EAS) and puborectalis muscle (PRM). We determined the functional morphology of anal sphincter muscles using high definition anal manometery (HDAM), three dimensional (3D)-ultrasound (US) and Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging.

Methods: We studied 15 nulliparous women.

Haemorrhoids is associated with high blood flow of the anorectal region. The question of whether pharmacological manipulation of vascular supply can relieve the symptoms of haemorrhoids has been raised. In order to undertake this type of clinical investigation, it is first essential to gain a better understanding of the properties of vascular receptors that may regulate blood flow into anal cushions and haemorrhoids.

Ricinuleid functional mouthparts are the cucullus, the chelicerae, the pedipalps, and the labrum. These structures are movably jointed to the rest of the prosoma, most likely protruded upon hydrostatic hemolymph pressure and retracted by prosomal muscles. Seta-like protrusions from the labrum and the pedipalpal coxae form a sieve-like filter inside the preoral cavity and the mouth.

Pelvic floor anatomy and applied physiology.

Gastroenterol Clin North Am

September 2008

Pelvic Floor Function and Disorder Group, Division of Gastroenterology, University of California, GI-111D, San Diego VA Health Care Center, 3350 La Jolla Village Drive, San Diego, CA 92161, USA.

Pelvic floor muscles have two major functions: they provide support or act as a floor for the abdominal viscera including the rectum; and they provide a constrictor or continence mechanism to the urethral, anal, and vaginal orifices (in females). This article discusses the relevance of pelvic floor to the anal opening and closure function, and discusses new findings with regards to the role of these muscles in the vaginal and urethra closure mechanisms.
