Asian Journal of Andrology, 2020 Cloacal malformations are characterized by the confluence of the lower urinary tract, the female reproductive tract, and the rectum to create a common channel with a single opening on the perineum.

Persistent Cloaca and Cloacal Variants in Males: Qualitative Review of a Neglected Anomaly [PDF]
Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric SurgeonsContext: Cloacal malformations are rare and are typically reported in females. There are a few scattered reports in males. It is not clear why they are so rare in males since both sexes negotiate this stage of embryonal development.

Clinical experience with persistent cloaca. [PDF]
J Korean Surg Soc, 2011 Persistent cloaca is one of the most severe types of anorectal malformation. Appropriate initial drainage is difficult due to their various malformations and hydrocolpos or dilated urinary bladder. Corrective surgery also differs among individual patients.

Diagnosis of Persistent Cloaca by Ultrasonography and MRI: A Case Report. [PDF]
Am J Case Rep, 2020 BACKGROUND Persistent cloacal malformations are rare anomalies that are anorectal malformations occurring in females. In cases of persistent cloaca, prenatal ultrasonography shows fetal ascites, cystic tumor in the abdomen, oligohydramnios, and hydronephrosis. There are various types of persistent cloaca, and symptoms vary.

Efficacy of vesicostomy for refractory metabolic acidosis in persistent cloaca. [PDF]
CEN Case Rep, 2022 Persistent cloaca involves fusion of the bladder, vagina, and rectum into a single duct called the common duct. Although its pathogenesis remains unclear, it has been associated with hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis. Herein, we present the case of a neonatal girl with high-confluence type variant of persistent cloaca treated with vesicostomy (Blocksom)

Combined endoscopic and laparoscopic surgery for staged repair of complex cloacal anomalies: A case series [PDF]
Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case ReportsIntroduction: The combined endoscopic and laparoscopic surgery (CELS) technique can be used during reconstruction for infants with complex congenital anomalies. In persistent cloacal malformations, this approach permits delineation of challenging anatomy
