Short‐term outcome of percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation for low anterior resection syndrome: results of a pilot study

Abstract

PTNS may be a further option in the treatment of selected patients with LARS and in addition may improve associated urinary incontinence. The severity of LARS can be detected by the LARS score; however, the adoption of the TAPE score is preferred in the case of concomitant urinary and/or sexual problems not explored by the LARS score.
