The previously reported Malone antegrade continence enema (MACE) was u
sed in 21 children for intractable fecal incontinence or constipation,
Twelve are completely clean, and three are much improved (71% success
rate). However, only four of the 21 have not had some type of complic
ation, either minor or major, Five of the 21 now have a colostomy, and
one has abandoned the procedure. Copyright (C) 1995 by W.B. Saunders
