Percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation vs sacral nerve stimulation for faecal incontinence: a comparative case‐matched study

The study assessed the initial experience with posterior tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) for faecal incontinence and compared it with sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) performed in a single centre during the same timespan.
