COLONIC ATRESIA WITH ANORECTAL MALFORMATION — A RARE CASE REPORT WITH REVIEW OF LITERATURE

Abstract

Colonic atresia is a rare form of intestinal atresia accounts for around 1 per 20000 live births. [1] It may present as isolated lesion or it may be associated with other congenital anomalies like hirschsprung's disease, imperforate anus, exomphalos, multiple atresia or colonic duplication. This is quite difcult to make diagnosis when colonic atresia is associated with other congenital anomalies. We are presenting a case of imperforate anus operated outside came to us for denitive repair. The distal atretic segment was about ve cm from prolapsed part.
