Congenital fistula between the lateral buttock and postanal dermal sinus tracts with a low-type anorectal malformation

A congenital fistula between the lateral buttock and postanal dermal sinus tracts with a low-type anorectal malformation has not been previously reported. The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical characteristics and optimal surgical management of this condition. Three female patients were n...
