- Despite immediate surgical repair, several of these women will suffer from anal incontinence at follow-up.1 In last years, sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) has been described to effectively improve treatment of FI.2 The aim of the present study is to evaluate clinical, manometric, and quality-of-life results of SNS in the treatment of FI after delivery sphincter injury. [...]we considerer SNS to be the first surgical treatment when conservative therapies fail and has reduced the need for more invasive procedures.
