In addition, none of patients had either accident or social problem. Rintala score of normal and good have been shown in 14 (19.4%) and 55 (76.4%) patients, respectively. Female patients had a 4.2-times higher risk for showing a more/less often frequency of defecation compared with male patients (95% confidence interval (CI)=1.03-17.1; p=0.035).Conclusions:
ARM patients’ functional outcomes after procedure in our institution are considered relatively good. In addition, the frequency of defecation in male patients after definitive surgery is better than female patients.
