This prospective, cross-sectional study, conducted from July 2018 to March 2019, aimed to determine the causes of constipation using high-resolution anorectal manometry. Among 33 children enrolled in the study, 31 (94%) children presented with complaints of constipation with mean duration of 2.3 ± 2.5 years and 12 (36.4%) children also had associated complaints of faecal incontinence with mean duration of 3.5 ± 2.8 years. Seven children (21.2%) had normal high-resolution anorectal manometry parameters; anal sphincter hypotonia with decreased squeeze in one child, anal sphincter hypertonia with other abnormal parameters were noted in 25 and absent recto-anal inhibitory reflex in two. The causes of constipation determined were functional constipation in 30 (91%) children, suspected Hirschsprung’s disease in two and suspected dyssynergic defecatory disorder in one. Almost 90% had functional constipation of which anal hypotension and anal hypertension may be a part of chronic functional constipation.
