Incontinence is one of the major stigmata a ecting the quality of life of the myelodysplastic patient. The appropriate management of the neuropathic bladder has led most patients to survive with good conditions. Major advances have also been made in the treatment of faecal incontinence for enabling patients to achieve their full potential, to become integrated in society and to be as independent as possible. We present the results of the Retrograde Colonic Enema (RCE) in 33 patients su ering neurogenic faecal incontinence. We believe that the RCE is one of the best conservative methods of treatment for relieving faecal incontinence originating from spina bi®da and other neurological problems with intestinal dysfunction.
