Core Tip	Until now, there have been no standard treatment methods for obstructed defecation. Although we believe biofeedback is more beneficial for obstructive defecation, recent controlled studies indicate that the efficacy of manometric biofeedback treatment for obstructive defecation remains controversial. The main purpose of this research was to assess and compare the quality of life scores of patients diagnosed with obstructive defecation following treatment with biofeedback therapy or oral polyethylene glycol management. Biofeedback had the clear effect of teaching patients how to squeeze and relax their anorectal and pelvic floor muscles during defecation. The data in this study show a clear superiority of biofeedback related to oral polyethylene glycol for the treatment of this subtype of constipation. If this research was extended to large multicenter randomized trials and its efficiency proven, biofeedback could become the standard treatment method for obstructive defecation.
