    September 30: Fecal Incontinence and Constipation in Pediatrics, A Surgeon's Perspective

    Marc A. Levitt, MD
    Director, Medical Student Surgery Clerkship
    Cincinnati Children’s Hospital
    Cincinnati, Ohio

    Many children suffer from fecal incontinence due to a variety of causes, such as previous surgery (anorectal malformations and Hirschsprung’s),  associated spinal problems, and severe constipation. All children at the age of potty training, age 3 to 5, should be clean and in normal underwear. For
    patients that suffer from fecal incontinence, the clinician can either help them realize their potential for voluntary bowel control with medical treatments or a mechanical enema-based program. Understanding the evaluation and treatment of fecal incontinence can dramatically improve the quality of life for many children.
