  • The Anatomy of the Rectum and Anal Canal
    BASIC SCIENCE identify the rectosigmoid junction with confidence at operation. The anatomy of the rectum The rectosigmoid junction usually lies approximately 6 cm below the level of the sacral promontory. Approached from the distal and anal canal end, however, as when performing a rigid or flexible sigmoid- oscopy, the rectosigmoid junction is seen to be 14e18 cm from Vishy Mahadevan the anal verge, and 18 cm is usually taken as the measurement for audit purposes. The rectum in the adult measures 10e14 cm in length.

  • Fecal Incontinence/Anal Incontinence
    Fecal Incontinence/Anal Incontinence What are Fecal incontinence/ Anal Incontinence? Fecal incontinence is inability to control solid or liquid stool. Anal incontinence is the inability to control gas and mucous in addition to the inability to control stool. The symptoms range from mild release of gas to a complete loss of control. It is a common problem affecting 1 out of 13 women under the age of 60 and 1 out of 7 women over the age of 60. Men can also be have this condition. Anal incontinence is a distressing condition that can interfere with the ability to work, do daily activities and enjoy social events. Even though anal incontinence is a common condition, people are uncomfortable discussing this problem with family, friends, or doctors. They often suffer in silence, not knowing that help is available. Normal anatomy The anal sphincters and puborectalis are the primary muscles responsible for continence. There are two sphincters: the internal anal sphincter, and the external anal sphincter. The internal sphincter is responsible for 85% of the resting muscle tone and is involuntary. This means, that you do not have control over this muscle. The external sphincter is responsible for 15% of your muscle tone and is voluntary, meaning you have control over it. Squeezing the puborectalis muscle and external anal sphincter together closes the anal canal. Squeezing these muscles can help prevent leakage. Puborectalis Muscle Internal Sphincter External Sphincter Michigan Bowel Control Program - 1 - Causes There are many causes of anal incontinence. They include: Injury or weakness of the sphincter muscles. Injury or weakening of one of both of the sphincter muscles is the most common cause of anal incontinence.

In this process, bile secreted into the small intestine 4 combines with large drops of liquid fat to form Healthy tiny molecular-sized spheres. Within these spheres (micelles), pancreatic enzymes can break down fat (triglycerides) into free fatty acids.

  • 48 Anal Canal
    Anal Canal The rectum is a relatively straight continuation of the colon about 12 cm in length. Three internal transverse rectal valves (of Houston) occur in the distal rectum. Infoldings of the submucosa and the inner circular layer of the muscularis externa form these permanent sickle- shaped structures. The valves function in the separation of flatus from the developing fecal mass. The mucosa of the first part of the rectum is similar to that of the colon except that the intestinal glands are slightly longer and the lining epithelium is composed primarily of goblet cells. The distal 2 to 3 cm of the rectum forms the anal canal, which ends at the anus. Immediately proximal to the pectinate line, the intestinal glands become shorter and then disappear. At the pectinate line, the simple columnar intestinal epithelium makes an abrupt transition to noncornified stratified squamous epithelium. After a short transition, the noncornified stratified squamous epithelium becomes continuous with the keratinized stratified squamous epithelium of the skin at the level of the external anal sphincter. Beneath the epithelium of this region are simple tubular apocrine sweat glands, the circumanal glands. Proximal to the pectinate line, the mucosa of the anal canal forms large longitudinal folds called rectal columns (of Morgagni). The distal ends of the rectal columns are united by transverse mucosal folds, the anal valves. The recess above each valve forms a small anal sinus. It is at the level of the anal valves that the muscularis mucosae becomes discontinuous and then disappears. The submucosa of the anal canal contains numerous veins that form a large hemorrhoidal plexus.

  • Fact Sheet - Symptoms of Pancreatic Cancer
    Fact Sheet - Symptoms of Pancreatic Cancer Diagnosis Pancreatic cancer is often difficult to diagnose, because the pancreas lies deep in the abdomen, behind the stomach, so tumors are not felt during a physical exam. Pancreatic cancer is often called the “silent” cancer because the tumor can grow for many years before it causes pressure, pain, or other signs of illness. When symptoms do appear, they can vary depending on the size of the tumor and where it is located on the pancreas. For these reasons, the symptoms of pancreatic cancer are seldom recognized until the cancer has progressed to an advanced stage and often spread to other areas of the body. General Symptoms Pain The first symptom of pancreatic cancer is often pain, because the tumors invade nerve clusters. Pain can be felt in the stomach area and/or in the back. The pain is generally worse after eating and when lying down, and is sometimes relieved by bending forward. Pain is more common in cancers of the body and tail of the pancreas. The abdomen may also be generally tender or painful if the liver, pancreas or gall bladder are inflamed or enlarged. It is important to keep in mind that there are many other causes of abdominal and back pain! Jaundice More than half of pancreatic cancer sufferers have jaundice, a yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes. Jaundice is caused by a build-up bilirubin, a substance which is made in the liver and a component of bile. Bilirubin contains a lot of yellow pigment, and gives bile it’s color.

  • Progress Report Anal Continence
    Gut: first published as 10.1136/gut.12.10.844 on 1 October 1971. Downloaded from Gut, 1971, 12, 844-852 Progress report Anal continence Anal continence depends on an adaptable barrier formed at the ano-rectal junction and in the anal canal by a combination of forces. These are due in part to the configuration of the region and in part to the action of muscles. The forces are activated in response to sensory information obtained from the rectum and the anal canal. In order to understand some of the concepts of the mechanism of anal continence, some of the features of the anatomy and physiology of the region will be discussed. Anatomy (Fig. 1) The lumen of the rectum terminates at the pelvic floor and is continued, downwards and posteriorly, as the anal canal, passing through the levator ani muscle sheet and surrounded by the internal and external anal sphincters. The anal canal is 2.5 to 5 cm in length and 3 cm in diameter when distended. The axis of the rectum forms almost a right angle (average 820) with the axis of the anal canal. It has been established by radiological studies that the anal canal is an antero-posterior slit in the resting state.' The former concept of http://gut.bmj.com/ the anal canal being surrounded successively craniocaudally by the internal anal sphincter and then the external anal sphincter has been replaced by the knowledge that the two muscles overlap to a considerable extent with the external sphincter wrapped round the internal sphincter2'3.
