Abstract

There have been a few reports of familial anorectal malformations extending over more than one generation. We experienced a case of a family with 3 members spanning 2 generations affected with isolated low type anorectal malformations. They had same low type of anorectal malformations. In all 3 patients, a perianal anoplasty was performed.

Keywords: Anorectal malformations, Family
