What Is an Imperforate Anus?
After-surgical care for an anorectal malformation is also known as anal dilation or post-surgical care for anorectal malformation. If your child has a colostomy, it is usually closed 2 to 3 months after the anorectal malformation surgery to create a new anal opening was completed. This is usually performed while the child is still in the hospital.
Surgical repair involves creating an opening for passage of stool. Complete absence of an anal opening requires emergency surgery for the newborn. Surgical repairs are done while the baby is deep asleep and pain-free using general anesthesia. Surgery for a high type imperforate anus defect usually involves creation of a temporary opening of the large intestine colon onto the abdomen to allow passage of stool this is called a colostomy. The baby is allowed to grow for several months before attempting the more complex anal repair.
