The spinal insults were disc prolapse (six), trauma (four), spinal stenosis (one) or occurred during neurosurgery (two). Twelve patients (eight women and four men) had successful temporary stimulation and proceeded to permanent implantation. The median follow-up time was 12 (range 6\u201324) months. The mean(s.d.) number of episodes of incontinence decreased from 9\u00b733(7\u00b764) per week at baseline to 2\u00b739(3\u00b769) at last follow-up (P = 0\u00b7012). The number of days per week with incontinence and staining decreased significantly (both P &amp;lt; 0\u00b7001). Ability to defer defaecation improved from a median of not being able to defer (range 0\u20131 min) to being able to defer for 5\u201315 (range 0 to over 15) min (P = 0\u00b7022).<\/jats:p>\n
