[Treatment of rectal prolapse after proctoplasty in a child with rectal atresia].

Rectal prolapse is a common disease in childhood and observed mainly at the age of 1-4 years old (95% of cases). If conservative treatment is ineffective, surgical correction of rectal prolapse in children without previous anorectal surgery is performed at the age of over a year. There is a single report on examination of patients aged 4-16 years after surgical correction of anorectal malformations with postoperative rectal prolapse. We present diagnosis and successful surgical treatment of rectal prolapse in an infant who underwent previous perineal proctoplasty for fistulous form of anorectal malformation.
