1 Fecal Incontinence Sphincter Augmentation Alaiyan Bilal MD Hadassah mt scopus

2 AUGMENTATION METHODS Injectables( Bulking agents) Radiofrequency

3 INJECTABLES Biomaterials Polytef, Autologous fat, GAX (glutaraldehyde cross-linked) collagen, PTQ implantstm, Durasphere, Coaptite, Zuidex is dextranomer hyaluronic acid copolymer

4 The ideal agent biocompatible, non-migratory, non-allergenic, nonimmunogenic, non-carcinogenic, easy to inject and produce durable results.

5 INJECTABLES The first report of the use of injectable bulking agents was in 1993 by Shafik - Polytetrafluroethylene (Teflon or Polytef) 11 patients with improvement in all Shafik 14 autologous fat, good shortterm results In 1998 Kumar et al.8 used glutaraldehyde cross-linked collagen 17 pts 11 short term improvement.

6 INJECTABLES Bioplastique, the equivalent of the silicone-based urological product Macroplastique 10 pts 6 months effect. carbon-coated zirconium oxide beads (Durasphere 18 pts partial short term results self-detaching cross-linked silicone microballoons with a biocompatible filler material

7 Mechanism of action augments the natural anal cushions encourages a better seal of the anal canal lumen at rest increases the length of the anal high pressure zone improvement in anal canal symmetry

8 ACYST or DURASPHERE FI Microscopic picture of pyrolitic carbon beads Each carbon bead is µm Suspension of carbon bead in a gel consisting of water and beta-d glucan.

9 Methods of injection Submucosal intersphincteric trans-sphincteric

10 Systematic Review: Route of Injection Increase complications with intersphincteric vs transphincteric and pereanal injection n=969

11 Lack of well-conducted, randomised, controlled trials from which the efficacy of anal bulking agents can be determined.

12 Dextranomer in stabilised hyaluronic acid Randomised, sham-controlled trial Patients from 8 US and 5 European centers Patients randomly assigned to receive (2:1) either anal injection of NASHA Dx (active treatment) or sham treatment After 1 month, all patients with a CCFIS of 10 or more (and no persistent adverse effects) were offered a repeat procedure Graf at al. Lancet 2011

13 Dextranomer in stabilised hyaluronic acid Randomised, sham-controlled trial 206/278 were randomly assigned to receive either active or sham treatment A 50% or greater reduction in the number of incontinence episodes: 71 (52%) patients in the active treatment group 22 (31%) patients in the sham treatment group Odds ratio 2.36, 95% CI , p=0.009).

18 Results 62.7% - responders 50% reduction in FI episodes. The median number of FI episodes declined by 68.8% (P < 0.001). incontinence free days increased from 14.6 to 21.7 at 24 months (P < 0.001). quality of life scores also showed significant improvements.

19 Conclusion NASHA/Dx is safe, effective and durable over a 24-month period

20 Long-term evaluation of bulking agents for the treatment of fecal incontinence: clinical outcomes and ultrasound evidence F. Guerra M. La Torre G. Giuliani D. Coletta S. Amore Bonapasta F. Velluti F. La Torre Tech Coloproctol (2015) 19:23 27

21 Methods median follow-up of 7 years, 19 patients with idiopathic fecal incontinence who had received bulking agent implants were evaluated. BA - Durasphere, PTQ and Solesta subcut. were used. Clinical, manometric and ultrasound assessments were carried out.

23 methods Median follow-up of 7 years 19 patients with idiopathic fecal incontinence who had received bulking agent implants were evaluated. Clinical, manometric and ultrasound assessments were carried out.

24 Conclusions In the long term, perianally injected bulking agents seem to lose effectiveness.. The ultrasound assessment suggests that the process of resorption is almost complete, and the implants are no longer effective in treating incontinence.
