    Abstract:
    In the period from 1987 to 1991, radical operations by the method of posterior sagittal anorectoplasty were conducted on 29 children with anorectal anomalies, whose ages ranged from zero to 10 years. In this group 12 patients were under the age of six months. The diagnosis was based on the presence of external clinical signs of the anomaly, ultrasonic scanning of the organs of the chest, abdomen, and true pelvis, as well as on the findings of the generally accepted radiological methods. In 23 children the radical operation was preceded by colostomy. Hyperbaric oxygenation was applied in the postoperative period in all patients. The late-term results were studied in 17 patients, they were found to be good in 12 patients and satisfactory in one patient. Mortality was not encountered in this group of patients.
