Occult neurovesical dysfunction in children with imperforate anus and its variants

C Sheldon et al. J Pediatr Surg. 1991 Jan.

Abstract

Neurovesical dysfunction (NVD) is frequently encountered in children with imperforate anus and its variants. Such functional urologic problems are often compounded by associated anatomic urologic abnormalities that in combination may profoundly alter the course and prognosis of children with imperforate anus. Herein, we report 16 such cases. Management of NVD in children with imperforate anus offers several unique challenges that require important alterations in management. Specific recommendation are presented.
