Incontinence to solid or liquid stool decreased from a median of 7 (range 4\u201315) to 2 (range 0\u20135) episodes in 21 days (P = 0\u00b7002). Saline retention time increased from a median of 2 (range 0\u20135) to 7 (range 2\u201315) min (P = 0\u00b7002). Maximum resting and squeeze anal canal pressures increased compared with preoperative values. Quality of life on all scales among patients who received a permanent implant increased at 12 and 24 months after operation.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n
