Özet: | Constipation is common in both adults and children. Estimates would suggest a median prevalence of around 12-16% in the general population.

This book provides contributions from authors with a range of backgrounds which clarify the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and therapy of constipation for the general population and also for certain high risk groups. |
