Dynamic myoplasty has many clinical applications and has proven to be a versatile surgical procedure with great promise. This procedure has been used to achieve fecal/urinary continence, as in the dynamic graciloplasty, and to augment cardiac ventricular function, as is commonly seen with dynamic latissimus cardiomyoplasty. In the present study, the authors describe a functional innovative island flap sphincter created from the rectus abdominis muscle in a large-animal model to provide stomal continence for future clinical studies.
