Murad-Regadas, Sthela Maria; Dealcanfreitas, Iris Daiana; Regadas, Francisco Sergio Pinheiro; Rodrigues, Lusmar VerasObjectives - To evaluate anal sphincter anatomy using three-dimensional ultrasonography (3-DAUS) in incontinent women with vaginal delivery, correlate anatomical findings with symptoms of fecal incontinence and determine the effect of vaginal delivery on anal canal anatomy and function. Methods - Female with fecal incontinence and vaginal delivery were assessed with Wexner’s score, manometry, and 3DAUS. A contr...

Murad-Regadas, Sthela Maria; Silveira, Claudio Regis Sampaio; Pereira, Jacyara de Jesus Rosa; Fernandes, Graziela Olivia da SilvaPURPOSE: To determine anatomical and functional pelvic floor measurements performed with three-dimensional (3-D) endovaginal ultrasonography in asymptomatic nulliparous women without dysfunctions detected in previous dynamic 3-D anorectal ultrasonography (echo defecography) and to demonstrate the interobserver reliability of these measurements. METHODS: Asymptomatic nulliparous volunteers were submitted to echo...
