Imperforate Anus Associated with Eventration of Diaphragm
نویسنده
چکیده
Anorectal malformations (ARM) are associated with a myriad of congenital anomalies. The prevalence rates of associated anomalies range from 20% to 80%, commonest being urogenital anomalies. Other important associations and syndromes include Down syndrome and VACTERL (vertebral, anorectal, cardiac, trachea-esophageal, renal, limb) anomalies [1]. ARM has rarely been described in association with diaphragmatic anomalies [2-7]. Fewer than half a dozen cases of diaphragmatic hernia are recorded in the literature; but none of diaphragmatic eventration.

We are reporting the case of a 32-year-old female who had suffered from fecal incontinence (FI). She was born with an imperforate anus and a recto-vaginal fistula; she underwent repair at 6 mo of age. At 29 years of age, she was still fecally incontinent despite extensive pelvic floor reeducation. A magnetic resonance imaging and an anal electromyography were performed. Because her symptoms wer...

Introduction: Combination of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and anorectal malformation (ARM) is rare. In this report, we describe a combination of imperforate anus and CDH in one of twins who conceived by Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART).

متن کاملSacral anomaly and pelvic floor muscle in imperforate anus: a clinical and experimental study.
Influences of sacral anomalies on the postoperative continence of imperforate anus were evaluated clinically and experimentally. Postoperative continence was clinically assessed by the quantitative scoring system for 77 patients (44 of high-type anomalies and 33 of low-type anomalies). Incidence of combined sacral anomalies was 28.6% (38.6% in high type anomalies and 15.2% in low type anomalies...
