Abstract
Background: Functional outcomes following reconstruction of anorectal malformations are important to assess and optimize. Patients with anorectal malformations of all severity need to be followed in a multidisciplinary fashion long-term to adequately assess these outcomes and maximize success.
Methods: This multidisciplinary review is a highlight of the panel presentation at the American Academy of Pediatrics Section on Surgery meeting.
Results: This multidisciplinary review includes recommendations for the monitoring and management of children with anorectal malformations, including both functional stooling and urologic outcomes.
Conclusion: Multidisciplinary longitudinal care is required to achieve optimal functional outcomes for children with anorectal malformations.
期刊介绍:
The journal presents original contributions as well as a complete international abstracts section and other special departments to provide the most current source of information and references in pediatric surgery. The journal is based on the need to improve the surgical care of infants and children, not only through advances in physiology, pathology and surgical techniques, but also by attention to the unique emotional and physical needs of the young patient.
