RESUMEN

Durante los últimos años el gran número de avances científicos ha permitido el desarrollo de nuevos métodos para la evaluación de la integridad anatómica, estructural y funcional de los esfínteres anales, piso pélvico y el tracto intestinal. El mecanismo de la continencia fecal es un proceso complejo. Hay diversos métodos para el diagnóstico de las enfermedades anorrectales, entre los cuales están: ultrasonido endoanal, electromiografía (EMG), latencia motora terminal del nervio pudendo (PNTML), manometría anal, cinedefecografía. Los estudios de tránsito colónico y del intestino delgado han sido usados para evaluar pacientes con diversos estados patológicos del piso pélvico. Los estudios de laboratorio de la fisiología anorrectal se aplican para demostrar la etiología y lograr planes subsecuentes para el tratamiento de diversas enfermedades funcionales como la incontinencia fecal, la constipación y los llamados síndromes de dolores anales. El siguiente trabajo es una introducción a los estudios y técnicas utilizadas en los laboratorios de fisiología anorrectal y aplicada en la práctica diaria en la investigación de enfermedades anorrectales.
