Abstract
Anorectal malformation is one of the most common congenital anomalies encountered in pediatric surgical practices. Its global incidence is approximately 1 in every 4,000 to 5,000 live births, with a slight male predominance. Approximately over 50% of children with ARM have associated abnormalities, whereby urological anomalies comprise more than half of associated abnormalities with incidence between 30% and 50%. Screening of urological anomalies through a thoroughly genital examination and renal ultrasound imaging at birth or in the neonatal period is crucial to detect associated genitourinary anomalies for early management and avoidance of renal damage.
Aim
This study aimed to identify and classify the associated urological anomalies with anorectal malformation patients admitted to Pediatric Surgery Department at Alexandria University Children’s Hospital.
Patients and Methods
A retrospective observational study was conducted in Pediatric Surgery Department at the Alexandria University Children’s Hospital. All patients with anorectal malformations and underwent urological screening between June 2021 and June 2023 were included. Information’s were obtained from the patients’ files. Urological screening methodology used were thoroughly genital examination, renal ultrasound and voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG). Data were fed to the computer and analyzed using IBM SPSS software package version 20.0.
