Eighty female patients with fecal incontinence (FI) who underwent defecography between 1st January 2016 and 30th April 2022 were included.

There were no significant differences in age, parity, FI type, and FISI scores between the groups. However, FISI scores were significantly lower in 51 patients with passive FI than 12 patients with mixed FI type [21 (8\u201338) vs. 32 (8\u201343), <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.007]. Endo-anal ultrasound showed no significant difference in the incidence of sphincter defects between the groups.
