Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of the Neuroestimulation of the Posterior Tibial Nerve for the treatment of this syndrome.

A multicentric, prospective, randomized study will be performed in patients affected with severe LARS symptoms. Patients will be randomized in two groups:

1. Control group- placebo
2. Treatment group: neuroestimulation of the posterior tibial nerve
