* Cohort 2: Patients must be willing and able to undergo elective ARM testing to measure pelvic floor function
* Cohort 2: Patients who have an average resting tone \< 40 mmHg (normal \> 40 mmHg) and maximal tolerance \< 200 milliliters (normal 200-300 milliliters) as measured by ARM

Exclusion Criteria:

* Cohort 1: Patients with co-morbid illnesses or concurrent disease, which in the judgment of the clinician obtaining informed consent, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study or interfere significantly with the proper assessment of safety and toxicity of the prescribed regimens

* Cohort 1: Patients with a platelet count \< 50 K within 30 days of consent
* Cohort 1: Patients currently being treated with chemotherapy or within preceding 30 days at the time consent
* Cohort 1: Patients previously treated with a SNS for urinary or FI
* Cohort 1: Patients who were documented to have an anastomotic leak following their restorative surgical resection
* Cohort 1: Patients with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status \> 2 at the time of consent
* Cohort 1: Patients with an active infection requiring systemic therapy at the time of consent
* Cohort 1: Patients with a significant history of uncontrolled cardiac disease including, but not limited to hypertension, unstable angina, myocardial infarction within the last 4 months, and uncontrolled congestive heart failure
* Cohort 2: Co-morbid illnesses or other concurrent disease, which in the judgment of the clinician obtaining informed consent, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study or interfere significantly with the proper assessment of safety and toxicity of the prescribed regimens
* Cohort 2: Patients with an ANC \< 1.7 within 30 days of consent
* Cohort 2: Patients with an INR \> 1.3 within 30 days of consent
* Cohort 2: Patients with a platelet count \< 50 K, within 30 days of consent

* Cohort 2: Patients previously treated with a sacral nerve stimulator for urinary or fecal incontinence
* Cohort 2: Patients with an ECOG performance status \> 2 at the time of consent
* Cohort 2: Patients with an active infection requiring systemic therapy at the time of consent
* Cohort 2: Patients with a significant history of uncontrolled cardiac disease including, but not limited to hypertension, unstable angina, myocardial infarction within the last 4 months, and uncontrolled congestive heart failure
* Cohort 2: Patients with an active autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment within the past 3 months or a documented history of clinically severe autoimmune disease, or a syndrome that requires systemic steroids or immunosuppressive agents. Subjects with vitiligo or resolved childhood asthma/atopy would be an exception to this rule. Subjects that require intermittent use of bronchodilators or local steroid injections would not be excluded from the study. Subjects with hypothyroidism stable on hormone replacement or Sjogren's syndrome will not be excluded from the study
