Three-dimensional high-resolution anorectal manometry (3DHRAM) is a new technique that can simultaneously provide physiological and topographical data on the terminal part of the digestive tract. Our object was to assess whether 3DHRAM is able to reliably diagnose excessive perineal descent already diagnosed with conventional defaecography, which is considered to be the gold standard.
