Abstract
Continence following the gracilis stimulated neosphincter reconstruction after total rectal excision is inferior to that obtained in the presence of an intact anal canal. We describe a modification of the alpha loop in which the tendon is brought through the belly of the gracilis muscle. The results in three patients are presented.
