    A straightforward constipation treatment method proved effective for 40 patients with severe primary or diverticular disease-related constipation. This approach offers a simple solution for managing difficult bowel conditions.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Colorectal Surgery

    Background:

    • Constipation is a prevalent gastrointestinal disorder impacting millions globally.
    • Severe primary constipation and constipation linked to diverticular disease present significant clinical challenges.

    Observation:

    • A novel, simple treatment method was developed and applied.
    • The method was successfully implemented in a cohort of 40 patients.

    Findings:

    • The treatment demonstrated high success rates in patients with severe primary constipation.
    • The method was also effective for managing constipation associated with diverticular disease.

    Implications:

    • This simple method offers a potentially valuable, accessible therapeutic option for clinicians treating constipation.
