Campus Construction Update

Starting September 14, we’re closing the Menino building lobby entrance. This, along with the ongoing Yawkey building entrance closure, will help us bring you an even better campus experience that matches the exceptional care you've come to expect. Please enter the Menino and Yawkey buildings through the Moakley building, and make sure to leave extra time to get to your appointment. Thank you for your patience.

Overlapping sphincteroplasty is surgery to repair a damaged anal sphincter, the muscle that allows you to hold stool in your body. The external anal sphincter forms a ring around the anus and if damaged, the surgeon will reattached damaged ends and stitch them together to create a complete ring shaped muscle, restoring the proper shape.
