Although most children with Hirschsprung disease ultimately achieve functional and comfortable stooling, some will experience a variety of problems after pull-through surgery. The most common problems include soiling, obstructive symptoms, enterocolitis, and failure to thrive. The purpose of this guideline is to present a rational approach to the management of postoperative soiling in children with Hirschsprung disease. The American Pediatric Surgical Association Hirschsprung Disease Interest Group engaged in a literature review and group discussions. Expert consensus was then used to summarize the current state of knowledge regarding causes, methods of diagnosis, and treatment approaches to children with soiling symptoms following pull-through for Hirschsprung disease. Causes of soiling after pull-through are broadly categorized as abnormalities in sensation, abnormalities in sphincter control, and \"pseudo-incontinence.\" A stepwise algorithm for the diagnosis and management of soiling after a pull-through for Hirschsprung disease is presented; it is our hope that this rational approach will facilitate treatment and optimize outcomes.

UNASSIGNED: Postmenopausal labial fusion constitutes a severe form of genitourinary syndrome of menopause. This report describes the management of a series of women with complete labial fusion (CLF) and pseudo-incontinence.
UNASSIGNED: This is a seven-year retrospective chart review in a urogynaecology unit of a tertiary hospital of all who patients presented with CLF and lower urinary tract symptoms, predominantly continuous urinary incontinence. All patients had a standardized surgical intervention and were followed up in the outpatient department.
UNASSIGNED: Seven patients (mean age 72.9 ± 12.1 years) with CLF and associated pseudo-incontinence were identified from the hospital archives. All patients had an uneventful surgical restoration of the labial anatomy, the pseudo-incontinence had resolved immediately postoperatively in all cases, and no recurrence of the labial agglutination had occurred after an average follow-up of 2.4 years.
UNASSIGNED: In this report we present a case series of seven postmenopausal patients with CLF and urinary pseudo-incontinence who underwent successful surgical management with good anatomical results and complete resolution of urinary symptoms.
