OBJECTIVE Several clinical, urodynamic, and manometric findings suggest neurologic damage as a contributing factor in the development of combined fecal and urinary incontinence. In this study, we wanted to test the hypothesis of pudendal nerve neuropathy being a more frequent lesion in patients with

OBJECTIVE To review last year's literature on combined fecal and urinary incontinence, highlighting the most recent contributions on prevalence, physiopathology, evaluation, and treatment. RESULTS Prevalence studies of double incontinence are rare but both conditions are frequently associated with
