High-resolution Anorectal Manometry in the Diagnosis of Functional Defecation Disorder in Patients With Functional Constipation: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Abstract
Background/Aims: High-resolution anorectal manometry (HRAM) has been considered a first-line diagnostic tool for functional defecation disorder. However, clinical studies on HRAM used in constipation patients are very limited and few studies have reported the characteristics of anorectal pressure in Chinese patients. The aim of this study is to investigate the characteristics of motility data in a cohort of Chinese patients with functional constipation.

Methods: A total of 82 consecutive patients with functional constipation who underwent a standardized HRAM were retrospectively enrolled in this study. The functional defecation disorder was classified into Rao¡¯s types.

Results: The mean age of 82 patients was 51 years (range, 16-83 years). Indications for anorectal manometry were functional constipation for all patients. The mean resting pressure was 69.2 ¡¾ 21.2 mmHg (range, 24.5-126.9 mmHg). The mean maximum squeezing pressure was 198.4 ¡¾ 75.6 mmHg (range, 54.2-476.9 mmHg). The mean length of the anal high pressure zone was 3.4 ¡¾ 1.0 cm (range, 0.6-4.9 cm). Sixty (73.2%) patients were diagnosed as functional defecation disorder. In attempted defecation, type I was most common (n = 24), followed by type II (n = 12), type III (n = 11), and type IV (n = 13) that were present on HRAM according to Rao¡¯s classification. In all 60 patients with functional defecation disorder, 37 were women and 23 were men. Men were significantly more likely than women to have functional defecation disorder (92.0% vs 64.9%, P = 0.014).

Conclusion: HRAM could be used as a test for the diagnosis of functional defecation disorder and functional defecation disorder is common in Chinese patients with functional constipation.
