Aim Regular anal dilatations are commonly recommended in the postoperative management following posterior sagittal anorectoplasty (PSARP) in anorectal malformations (ARM). We hypothesized that routine postoperative dilatations may not affect surgical outcomes following PSARP. We compare surgical outcomes of routine postoperative dilatations versus no routine postoperative dilatations from two United Kingdom tertiary pediatric surgical centers. Materials and Methods This is retrospective records review of patients undergoing definitive surgery for ARM in two tertiary surgical centers in the UK over 5 years. Center A used a protocol of routine postoperative dilatations, and center B used a protocol, which used dilatations only for clinical indications of stricture. Data collected included ARM type, operative procedures, and postoperative interventions. All post-operative interventions under general anesthesia (GA) were compared between groups. Results From 2011 to 2015, 49 procedures (46 PSARPs) were performed in center A and 54 (52 PSARPs) in center B. Median follow up period was 31 months (interquartile range [IQR] 18–48). The first postoperative anal calibration under GA was documented for 43 (86%) patients in center A and for 42 (78%) patients in center B. Following this, center A followed routine postoperative dilatation (RPD) at home, and center B reserved further dilatations for specific indications. RPD was performed for 100% of patients in center A versus 8% in center B. Further anal dilatations under GA were performed in 19 (38%) children in center A and in 17 (34%) children in center B (p = 0.68). In center A, 10 patients (22%) needed further surgery versus 14 (28%) in center B (p = 0.48). Conclusion The use of routine postoperative dilatations does not significantly improve surgical outcomes following PSARP in ARM.

Background: The management of anorectal malformations universally uses posterior sagittal anorectoplasty (PSARP) as standard surgery. The aim of this research was to determine continence in patients with anorectal malformation after PSARP action.Methods: This study was a descriptive analytical categorical research with cross sectional design. The data were obtained from patients’ medical records and questionnaire given to patients underwent PSARP in Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital and network hospitals from June 1 to December 1, 2018. The analysis was done to 60 children ranging from 5 to 8 years old. Most of them were male (56.7%) ranging from 5 to 6 years old (53.3%).Results: The results of the research indicated that based on malformation subtype, most of them suffered from rectourethra fistula (40.0%) with continence problem (61.7%). There was no significant correlation between sex and continence problem (p >0.05). However, it was seen that the percentage of continence subjects was higher in female (65.4%) than in male (58.8%), while the percentage of soiling and constipated subjects was higher in male than in female. Rectourethra fistula was found more frequently in male than in female (70.6%), while vestibuler fistula was found more frequently in female (69.2%). There was no significant correlation between age and defecation problem (p >0.05). However, the percentage of continence and soiling subjects was higher in 5-6 years children then the one for 7-8 year children, while the percentage of constipated subjects was higher in 7-8 year children (21.4%) than 5-8 year children (18.8%).Conclusions: Gender differences in the outcome of children with anorectal malformations must be considered. Men with perineal fistula were likely to experience continence and constipation than women with perineal fistulas. Women with perineal fistulas and vestibular fistulas had almost similar outcome.

Aim: To assess the effectiveness of posterior sagittal anorectplasty for the repair of anorectal malformations in terms of postoperative complications and functional outcomes. Study design: Descriptive prospective study. Place and duration of study: Sahiwal Teaching Hospital, Sahiwal. From 1st January 2016 to 31st December 2019. Methodology: Forty-two children with high/intermediate anorectal malformations, who underwent posterior sagittal anorectoplasty, were included in the study. Patients with low variety anorectal malformations, recto vestibular/ano vestibular fistula, persistent cloaca and patients with sacral dysraphism, spinal dysraphism, myelomeningocele spina bifida occulta and menifesta were excluded. Demographic information included age, gender, weight, type of anorectal malformation, type of surgery performed, operation time and hospital stay. Immediate post-operative complications were also noted. Bowel habits, constipation and faecal incontinence were evaluated in all patients during the follow up period. Results: Thirty-one (73.80%) were males and 11(26.19%) were females and mean age was 1.72 years. The mean weight at the time of operation was 11.00 kg. High variety anorectal malformations were 14(33.33%) and intermediate were 28(66.66%). Rectourethral fistula 25(59.52%) was most common variety seen in males. Recto bulber urethral fistula in 17(40.47%) and recto prostatic urethral fistula in 8(19.04%) patients were seen. Anal agenesis without fistula 7(16.66%) was most common anomaly in females. Overall complication rate was 15(35.71%). Constipation 11(26.19%) was most common post-operative complication. True fecal incontinence was seen in 3(7.14%) patients. Strong and effective squeeze of anal sphincter was seen in 39 (92.85%) patients and satisfactory bowel habits were present in 37 (88.08%) patients. Conclusion: Posterior sagittal anorectplasty is a useful procedure in the management of high/intermediate anorectal malformations, precise identification and reconstruction of muscle complex result in good anatomical and functional outcome. Immediate post-operative complication rate is also low. Keywords: Anorectal malformations, Posterior Sagittal Anorectoplasty, Postoperative complications, Functional outcomes
