Fecal incontinence (FI) in adults is a troublesome condition that effects substantial portion of the population and represent a major social and economic burden. The first line of treatment involves conservative therapy and physical treatments. When these measures fail, other interventions are warranted. In the last few years, new emerging techniques for the treatment of FI have become available, including sacral neuromodulation, posterior tibial stimulation, acupuncture, internal anal sphincter augmentation, temperature controlled radiofrequency anal energy delivery and stem cell transplantation. This paper discusses the conservative and novel treatment options for FI.
