[Recurrent complete rectal prolapse as a complication of posterior perineostomy, cured with posterior sagittal ano-rectoplasty].
Among the anal-rectal malformations seen in females, the vestibular fistulae is frequently underestimated and tried to be corrected with a simple posterior perineostomy which may eventually cause, besides a esthetic problems, anatomical and physiological irregularities as those seen in a three year old girl, who after a posterior perineostomy for a vestibular fistula, suffered a complete recurrent rectal prolapse, which was intended to be corrected after eight unsuccessful surgical interventions. Finally, the child was cured after a posterior sagittal ano-rectoplasty. After a two year follow-up, the child has not had another rectal prolapse.
