Implantation/injection of micro balloons, carbon-coated beads, autologous fat, silicone, and collagen. The relative effectiveness of surgical options for treating fecal incontinence is not known. A combination of different surgical and non-surgical therapies may be optimal. When dynamic graciloplasty is successful in curing FI, up to 50% of patients may develop signs and symptoms of obstructed defecation. This is also termed artificial anal sphincter or neosphincter. The usual surgical approach is through the perineum or alternatively via the vagina.
