[Using dissection of the internal anal sphincter with its hypertrophy in children].
Treatment of chronic constipations in children still remains an actual problem. In the period from 1996 to 2008 we made 4739 ultrasonic investigations in 3526 patients. Thickness of the internal anal sphincter was found in 1.72% of children. Operation of sphincterotomy of the internal anal sphincter was performed on 41 patients, its efficiency being studied within 1-2, 3-5 and 7-10 years. This intervention was shown to reestablish independent emptying in more than 70% of patients.
