Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Primary posterior sagittal anorectoplasty is recommended to repair anorectal malformations with rectoperineal or rectovestibular fistula. The aim of this study was to identify the impact of the presence of megarectum on the relative frequency of complications related to posterior sagittal anorectoplasty.
METHODS: We performed a cross-sectional retrospective study including patients with anorectal malformation, preoperative rectogram and surgically treated with primary or staged posterior sagittal anorectoplasty. Only complications related to anorectoplasty were analyzed and compared with the presence of megarectum.
RESULTS: Thirty patients aged 1 day to 7 years were included, 60% had megarectum. Sixteen patients had primary repair: 6 with megarectum and 10 without megarectum; complications occurred in four of the six with megarectum, 66.7%, and no complication were observed in the 10 patients without megarectum (F p=0.008). Fourteen patients had staged repair and no complications related to posterior sagittal anorectoplasty occurred in these patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Comprehensive preoperative evaluation in patients with anorectal malformation with rectoperineal or rectovestibular fistula could include a rectogram. Awareness of the presence of megarectum could be useful information in the decision to create a colostomy or perform a primary posterior sagittal anorectoplasty.
