  • Title: Imperforate anus, malrotation, and Hirschsprung's disease: a rare and important association.
    Author: Arbell D, Gross E, Orkin B, Koplewitz BZ, Udassin R.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 2006 Jul; 41(7):1335-7. PubMed ID: 16818077.
    Abstract:
    Imperforate anus and malrotation rarely occur together. The conjoint occurrence of these with Hirschsprung's disease is exceedingly rare, but failure to recognize its existence may lead to catastrophic results. We present a case in which awareness to this possibility caused early detection and avoidance of possible complications.
