A Female Infant with Rectovestibular Fistula and Imperforate Hymen

Abstract

A BSTRACT In a female neonate with anorectal malformation (ARM), the diagnosis is usually simple. But when there are two openings in the introitus and absent anal opening at the normal site, the scenario poses a diagnostic challenge. Careful and detailed evaluation of anomaly is therefore necessary before planning definitive correction. Imperforate hymen, although is not commonly associated with ARM should always be kept in mind as a differential diagnosis and other vaginal anomalies like Mayer–Rokitansky–Küster–Hauser syndrome should be ruled out before definitive surgical correction.
