    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Functional Bowel Disorders
    • Diarrhea Pathophysiology

    Context:

    • Functional bowel disorders are the leading cause of chronic diarrhea.
    • These disorders can manifest as colonic hypermotility or watery diarrhea.
    • Diagnosis necessitates the exclusion of organic etiologies.

    Purpose:

    • To summarize the presentation and management of functional bowel disorders causing chronic diarrhea.
    • To highlight the diagnostic challenges and obscure pathophysiology.
    • To outline current therapeutic strategies.

    Summary:

    • Functional bowel disorders are the most frequent cause of chronic diarrhea.
    • Presentation includes "diarrhée motrice" (colonic hypermotility) or watery diarrhea.

  • Pathophysiology remains unclear despite observed colonic motor abnormalities.

    • Impact:

    • Provides a concise overview of functional diarrhea for clinicians.
    • Emphasizes the importance of differential diagnosis in chronic diarrhea.
    • Reinforces standard treatment approaches for functional bowel disorders.
