The main presenting complaint in defecational disorders in spina bifida is constipation. The principal cause of this complaint is hypofunction or paralysis of muscles in the pelvic floor as a result of the spinal cord injuries. To evaluate the present status of defecation, anorectal manometry with special reference to the anorectal pressure profile has been useful. The possibility of using anorectal manometry for the research of anorectal movement and participation of spinal cord was discussed.
