Introduction In a newborn with an anorectal malformation (ARM), it is vital to determine the
anatomy of the underlying defect. After a colostomy has been created, distal colostography …

Ano-rectal malformations (ARM) in the male patient may be associated with a fistulous
communication between the rectum and urethra. Pre-operative radiological assessment is …

Background Recently, it has been reported that anorectal malformation with rectourethral
fistula in male neonates can be managed by primary neonatal reconstruction without …

Background Surgical safety during posterior sagittal anorectal plasty (PSARP) for anorectal
malformations (ARM) depends on accurate pre-operative fistula localization. This study …

Recto-urethral fistulae are the most common finding in males born with an anorectal
malformation (ARM). A high pressure distal colostogram is an important tool in visualizing …

Objective To compare MRI and colostography/fistulography in neonates with anorectal
malformations (ARM), using surgery as reference standard. Methods Thirty-three neonates …

Background: Accurate imaging of rectourethral fistula is essential for optimal surgical
management of infants with high-type anorectal malformation (ARM). The aim of this study …

Objective The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of MRI, colostography/
fistulography, and X-ray imaging modalities for preoperative diagnosis of anorectal …

Purpose The classification of anorectal malformations (ARM) as high or low is based on
clinical and anatomical characteristics. It has an impact on the surgical management but …

Background Radiological imaging is paramount for defining the genitourinary fistulae
commonly associated with anorectal malformations prior to definitive surgery. The imaging …
