    Genitourinary anomalies are common in children with imperforate anus, especially high rectal deformities. Early urologic evaluation is crucial for optimal functional outcomes in these patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Urology
    • Congenital Anomalies
    • Genitourinary Health

    Background:

    • Imperforate anus is a congenital condition affecting the rectum.
    • Genitourinary anomalies frequently coexist with imperforate anus.
    • The incidence and type of genitourinary anomalies vary with imperforate anus classification.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the association between types of imperforate anus and genitourinary anomalies.
    • To determine the necessity of early and comprehensive urologic evaluation in affected children.

    Main Methods:

    • Urological evaluation of 120 children with high, intermediate, and low types of imperforate anus.
    • Analysis of the incidence of genitourinary anomalies across different imperforate anus types.

    Main Results:

    • Genitourinary anomalies were observed in all types of imperforate anus.
    • Higher incidence of genitourinary anomalies was noted in children with high rectal deformities.
    • The overall prevalence of genitourinary anomalies was significant.

    Conclusions:

    • Imperforate anus is frequently associated with genitourinary anomalies.
    • Early and thorough urologic assessment is essential for managing children with imperforate anus.
    • Timely evaluation improves functional outcomes for genitourinary issues in this population.
