A member asked:
If a balloon catheter cannot pass anastomosis site during anorectal manometry, does that mean there's likely a stricture there?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very: Possible with a prior anastamosis, that there is a stricture there. It may or may not be symptomatic and they may consider balloon dilation of the stricture.
