Urogenital anomalies associated with anorectal malformations in children.

The urogenital tract is the most severe and common site of associated defects in anorectal malformations (ARM). Urogenital anomalies and their complications significantly increase the morbidity in these children after the ARM is corrected. The purpose of this study was to estimate the incidence of different types of urogenital anomalies with various types of anorectal malformations and to discuss the possible management and outcome. A retrospective study of patients with ARM and associated urogenital abnormalities admitted in the department of paediatric surgery of Sylhet MAG Osmani Medical College Hospital between 1998 and 2002 was undertaken. A total of 155 patients with Anorectal malformations were admitted of which 47 (30.32%) patients had associated anomalies involving other systems. Urogenital abnormalities were found in 25 (16.13%) patients. Patients of Anorectal malformations with urogenital abnormalities require careful assessment and well-timed intervention to minimize the morbidity.[1]
