Overview
Demonstration of anal sphincter defect by 3D-endoanal ultrasonography is helpful for sphincter reconstruction.
Ultrasound
3D-endoanal ultrasonography may reveal asymmetry and any defects in sphincter, thickening of the internal anal sphincter and submucosa. Demonstration of anal sphincter defect is helpful for sphincter reconstruction.[1]
