PURPOSE: The transient relaxation of the internal anal sphincter in response to rectal distention is believed to play an important role in the continence mechanism. Most anorectal physiology laboratories merely report the rectoanal inhibitory reflex... Read More about Rectoanal reflex parameters in incontinence and constipation.
