Controversies in anorectal malformations

The Lancet Child & Adolescent Health, 2017
Anorectal malformations are uncommon but complex congenital anomalies that require an individualised strategy of care for each step of the treatment process. These steps, which include preoperative evaluation, operative reconstruction, and postoperative care, are each unique and vitally important to overall patient outcomes.

Reoperations in anorectal malformations

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2007
Significant advances have occurred in the management of anorectal malformations, yet many patients still have technical, frequently catastrophic, operative complications that are potentially avoidable. We chose to analyze our experience in patients who have previously undergone a repair which was unsuccessful and required a reoperation, to detect the ...

Anorectal malformations in Africa.

Anorectal Malformations

Anorectal malformations (ARMs) are rare birth defects of the digestive system affecting 2–6 per 10.000 births worldwide. These anomalies are the result of an abnormal development of the distal end of the digestive tract interesting the anus and/or rectum that occur early between the sixth and tenth week of embryonic development.

Anorectal malformation with ileal atresia

Pediatric Surgery International, 1997
A low-type anorectal malformation associated with ileal atresia is described. It was very difficult to classify the anorectal malformation due to the presence of ileal atresia. Such anomalies are rare. A review of the literature on previously reported cases in Japan is presented.

Update on the management of anorectal malformations

Pediatric Surgery International, 2013
Thirty-three years ago, on 10 August 1980, in Mexico City, the first patient with an anorectal malformation was operated on using the posterior sagittal approach. At that time it was not obvious that we were actually opening a "Pandora's box" that continues to give many positive surprises, a few disappointments, and the constant hope that each day we ...

The spectrum of anorectal malformations in Africa

Pediatric Surgery International, 2008
Anorectal malformations (ARM) remain a significant birth defect with geographic variation in incidence, individual phenotypes and regional geographic subtypes. Although early studies indicated a low incidence in Black patients, there is a great paucity of knowledge as to the types, frequency and incidence of ARMs encountered in the African continent ...

N-type anorectal malformations

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1978
Three cases of N-type anorectal malformations have been encountered. Two girls with anorectal-vestibular fistulas (one with a normal anus and the other with mild stenosis) were typical of 15 other such cases in the literature. A boy with an anorectal-urethral fistula and covered anus had a lesser variant than most of the other 8 males in the literature.
