Composite Functional and Quality of Life Outcomes in Adults Operated for Cloacal Malformation
Introduction
Composite long-term outcomes of cloacal malformations remain unclear. We aimed to evaluate bowel and bladder control, sexual function, reproductive health, and quality of life in adulthood.
Methods
A Nordic multi-center cross-sectional observational study evaluating the outcome of adult patients with cloacal malformations was performed. Patient characteristics were retrieved from case records. Established questionnaires were sent to the patients to evaluate bowel- bladder- and sexual function and quality of life.
Results
Thirty-four of 48 (70%) eligible patients with median age 28 years (18–45) responded. Eight (24%) patients had a common channel >3 cm. Imaging-confirmed spinal and sacral abnormalities were present in 4 and 17 patients respectively. 85% (n = 29/34, four patients with permanent urinary diversions after bladder neck closure excluded) reported no urinary leakage without physical activity or urge to urinate. Three patients had a permanent enterostomy. 42 % (n = 11/26) reported acceptable bowel function according to Bowel Function Score (with eventual ongoing bowel management). The median Profile of Female Sexual Function Score was below normative values. Quality of life was comparable to the reference population, but thirty percent scored within the distress domains. Eight patients (24%) had been pregnant (15 pregnancies), resulting in seven live births, but the need of assisted reproduction techniques (40%, n = 6/15) and miscarriage (40%, n = 6/15) was common.
Conclusions
Adequate spontaneous bowel control was rare, while most patients were dry for urine without additional procedures. Cloacal malformation also have a negative impact on sexual function health related quality of life and reproductive health. Long-term follow-up is crucial, not only regarding bowel and bladder function, but also for sexual and reproductive function, which may be important negative factors for health-related quality of life.
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.
