  • Title: Common anorectal disorders for the intensive care physician.
    Author: Bach HH, Wang N, Eberhardt JM.
    Journal: J Intensive Care Med; 2014; 29(6):334-41. PubMed ID: 23753241.
    Abstract:
    Although anorectal disorders such as abscess, fissure, and hemorrhoids are typically outpatient problems, they also occur in the critically ill patient population, where their presentation and management are more difficult. This article will provide a brief review of anorectal anatomy, explain the proper anorectal examination, and discuss the current understanding and treatment concepts with regard to the most common anorectal disorders that the intensive care unit clinician is likely to face.
