Abstract

A variety of therapeutic approaches are available for faecal incontinence. Implantation of Gatekeeper™ prostheses is a new promising option. The primary endpoint of this prospective observational multicentre study was to assess the clinical efficacy of Gatekeeper™ implantation in patients with faecal incontinence. Secondary endpoints included the assessment of patients' quality of life, and the feasibility and safety of implantation.
