Abstract:

Pediatricians are increasingly recognized as the providers of choice for children with functional encopresis. The presence of clinically significant behavior problems could interfere with pediatric regimens for encopresis, however. To study the extent to which encopretic children exhibit behavior problems, we compared the scores on a standardized behavioral checklist for three randomly selected samples: a sample group of children with encopresis, a sample group of children with behavior problems, and a sample group of children without encopresis or behavior problems. All thres samples were mat

Abstract:

Objective. Abnormalities of hormones affecting gastrointestinal motility have been found in "functional" disorders of the gastrointestinal system in adults. One such disorder of childhood, encopresis, is frequently associated with constipation, the treatment of which often eliminates the soiling. We hypothesized that hormones affecting gastrointestinal motility were different between encopretic patients and matched controls. Methods. Ten encopretic patients were matched by age, race, and sex with controls who had no history of encopresis or constipation. After an overnight fast, each child con

Abstract:

SummaryBreath methane excretion is uncommon in children compared with adults. Certain intracolonic conditions, however, have been associated with enhanced methane generation. We hypothesized that encopretic and constipated children, who have abnormal colonic transit times, more likely would excrete methane than healthy children. To determine the prevalence of methane excretion among children with encopresis or simple constipation, we performed breath methane analysis on such patients and age‐, race‐, and sex‐matched control subjects. Encopretic patients (mean age, 8.3 ± 3.0 years) had daily, i

Abstract:

Functional constipation is an issue for both the patient and his/her family, affecting the patient’s psychoemotional balance, social relations, and their harmonious integration in the school environment. We aimed to highlight the connection between chronic constipation and encopresis and the patient’s psychosocial and family-related situation.Material and Method. 57 patients with ages spanning from 6 to 15 were assessed within the pediatric gastroenterology ward. Sociodemographic, medical, and psychological data was recorded. The collected data was processed using the SPSS 20 software.Results.

Summary: We compared anorectal sensory and motor functions, expulsion dynamics, and continence mechanisms in 50 children with encopresis and 21 healthy control children. When expulsion dynamics were studied, 43% of boys with encopresis inappropriately contracted the muscles near the anal canal compared with 10% of girls with encopresis (p > 0.05) and 10% of control children of both sexes (p < 0.05). In contrast to previous studies we demonstrated no abnormalities of thresholds of conscious rectal sensation or internal anal sphincter relaxation. In addition, children with encopresis had n

ABSTRACTBackground:Abnormal pudendal nerve function contributes to fecal retention and incontinence in adults. To determine the role of pudendal neuropathy in childhood, we prospectively evaluated pudendal nerve function in normal and encopretic children.Methods:We studied pudendal nerve terminal motor latency in 23 encopretic children and in an equal number of similarly aged, normal children. Anal manometry and electromyography were also obtained in all children.Results:Pudendal nerve latency in the encopretic children equaled 1.58 ± 0.33 msec, which was the same as that in control children.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to examine the psychosocial characteristics of children with encopresis and their families. Thirty children with encopresis and thirty-three children without encopresis and their families served as the subjects. As was predicted, children with encopresis demonstrated more behavior problems than controls on the Child Behavior Checklist; however, their reported behavior problems did not consistently reach the level of clinical significance. Younger encopretic children (preschool through second grade) viewed themselves as less competent than their peers on the Pictor

Abstract:

Incontinence in childhood in either of its forms, enuresis and encopresis, is one of the most prevalent and distressing of all childhood problems. Due to widespread misunderstanding, incontinence is a significant precipitating factor in the mistreatment of afflicted children. Interpretations of and treatments for enuresis and encopresis have shifted in the past few decades from a mostly psychopathological perspective to a biobehavioral perspective. Although the primary clinical features of incontinence are medical/organic, environmental and psychosocial elements are factors, and the most empir

Abstract:

Encopresis is an elimination disorder in which an individual has recurrent passage of feces into inappropriate places such as their clothing or the floor that is not due to the physiological effects of a substance or another medical condition aside from constipation. The child must be at least four years of age or the equivalent developmental level. The most common cause of functional encopresis is constipation with overflow incontinence. It typically occurs in children between the ages of five and 10 years. It often occurs during points of childhood transition, for example, when the child sta
