RESUMEN

PURPOSE: Urological management of Cloacal Malformation (CM) focuses on preserving renal function and continence. Study aim was to analyze urinary and intestinal outcomes in CM patients, considering the length of common channel (CC) and presence of occult spinal dysraphism (OSD). METHODS: Retrospective review of CM treated at our institution by a multidisciplinary team from 1999 to 2020. Patients with follow-up < 2.5 years were excluded. Length of CC, renal function, urinary and bowel outcomes, presence of associated anomalies (especially OSD) were evaluated. RESULTS: Twenty patients were included, median age at follow-up: 8 years (4-15). A long CC > 3 cm was described in 11 (55%). Chronic kidney disease was found in 3 patients. Urinary continence was achieved in 8/20 patients, dryness (with intermittent catheterization) in 9/20. Fecal continence was obtained in 3/20, cleanliness in 14 (under bowel regimen). OSD was present in 10 patients (higher prevalence in long-CC, 73%). Among OSD, 1 patient reached fecal continence, 7 were clean; 2 achieved urinary continence, while 6 were dry. CONCLUSIONS: Length of CC and OSD may affect urinary and fecal continence. An early counseling can improve outcome at long-term follow-up. Multidisciplinary management with patient centralization in high grade institutions is recommended to achieve better results.
