Area of Science:

  • Medical Science
  • Surgical Innovation
  • Pediatric Surgery

Background:

  • Cloacal duplication is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by duplication of the cloaca, including rectal, anal, and genitourinary structures.
  • This condition is exceptionally uncommon, with only two prior cases documented in medical literature.

Observation:

  • A case report details an 8-year-old female patient presenting with lifelong fecal incontinence.
  • The patient exhibited a complex cloacal duplication anomaly.

Findings:

  • Surgical intervention involved the removal of one duplicated rectum.
  • The remaining rectum was successfully exteriorized through the perineal raphe.

Implications:

  • This case highlights a successful surgical approach for managing cloacal duplication.
