  • Title: Anorectal malformation with tubular hindgut duplication.
    Author: Craigie RJ, Abbaraju JS, Ba'ath ME, Turnock RR, Baillie CT.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 2006 Jun; 41(6):e31-4. PubMed ID: 16769326.
    Abstract:
    The association of hindgut duplication and anorectal malformation is rare. Published classifications of this association are confusing in respect of terminology. We report a case of blind-ending, Y-shaped tubular duplication of the distal hindgut, associated with an anorectal malformation (rectourethral fistula) affecting the colon proper. Surgical options at time of presentation and of reconstructive surgery are discussed. A review and suggested modification of the classifications is presented.
