ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Female anorectal malformation is a correctable congenital defect. Delayed manifestations in patients with anal deformities are uncommon, especially after adolescence. CASESUMMARY:
The clinical data of a 19-year-old adult female patient with congenital anal atresia accompanied by rectovestibular fistula as the main manifestation was retrospectively analyzed. Diagnosis was made based on the patient's clinical symptoms, signs, imaging showing the fistula, X-ray and magnetic resonance imaging results. The preoperative examination was improved. Anorectoplasty was performed. The patient exhibited an improvement in quality of life and presented no evidence of fecal incontinence during the 6-mo follow-up.CONCLUSION:
Transfistula anorectoplasty is a reasonable and reliable surgical method for the treatment of adult congenital anal atresia and rectovestibular fistula.
