Rectal ectasia associated with anorectal anomalies

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1997
Rectal ectasia may be associated with anorectal anomalies. If not recognized at the time of surgical reconstruction it may lead to megarectosigmoid, resulting in severe constipation and overflow incontinence postoperatively. The authors treated four patients presenting with this condition. One patient born with a low anorectal anomaly and two with high

Use of MRI in evaluation of anorectal anomalies

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1990
Congenital anorectal anomalies present with a wide spectrum of anatomical deformity. The level of atresia, the extent of the development of the pelvic musculature, and the presence of associated anomalies all greatly influence treatment options. Further complexity may be introduced by previous attempts at correction.

Revision anorectoplasty in the management of anorectal anomalies

Pediatric Surgery International, 2002
Twelve patients who had a revision posterior sagittal anorectoplasty (PSARP) were evaluated by questionnaire. They were 11 months to 15 years old (median 5 years) at the time of revision surgery. All were born with an intermediate to high anorectal anomaly (ARM) and had ongoing problems of rectal prolapse (3), stenosis (1), faecal incontinence (9), or ...

Vesicoureteric Reflux in Neonates with Anorectal Anomalies

British Journal of Urology, 1983
SUMMARY— Thirty‐six babies born with an anorectal anomaly were evaluated for vesicoureteric reflux in the neonatal period and the progress of the reflux with age was followed. The overall incidence of reflux was 47%, with higher rates in the more severe types of anomaly. Generally, the reflux was of mild grade and tended to resolve with time, except in

Spectrum of anorectal anomalies in pygopagus twins

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2003
The literature lacks a concise description of the anorectal anomalies encountered in pygopagus twins.This is a retrospective literature review of 34 pygopagus twins highlighting their anorectal malformations.Overall pygopagus twins represent 17% of all conjoined twins.

Chromosomal anomalies in the etiology of anorectal malformations: A review

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, 2011
AbstractAnorectal malformation (ARM) is a severe congenital anomaly that can occur either isolated or in association with other congenital abnormalities. It has a heterogeneous etiology with contribution of both genetic and environmental factors, although the etiological factors remain largely unknown.

Congenital anorectal anomaly: CT evaluation.

Radiology, 1985
Anorectal anomalies were evaluated by computed tomography (CT) scanning in 23 patients. CT scans showed clearly the anatomy of the anal sphincter muscles in relation to the intestine and the amount of muscle mass present. These findings correlated well with the results of direct visualization and electromyograms in patients who underwent surgery.

Total anorectal reconstruction following congenital anorectal anomaly

Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1976
Following several unsuccessful postnatal attempts at anoplasty to correct anal atresia with a rectovaginal fistula, the patient, 20 years later, underwent an anorectal sphincteric construction using a gracilis-muscle transplant. The five-stage procedure, which extended over a period of two years, resulted in highly satisfactory continence and full ...

Evaluation of outcome of anorectal anomaly in childhood: the role of anorectal manometry and endosonography

Pediatric Surgery International, 2008
The aim of this study was to evaluate role of anorectal manometry (ARM) and anal endosonography (ES) in assessment of the internal anal sphincter (IAS) quality on continence outcome following repair of anorectal anomalies (ARA). We devised a scoring system to evaluate the quality of the IAS based on ARM and ES and correlated the scores with clinical ...
