Introduction:Enuresis is a form of incontinence and is the inability to socially control urine storage and discharge after the age at which bladder control should have been established 1 .This is one of the most common and perplexing problems brought to the attention of paediatritian.The prevalence at age 5 yr. is 7% for males and 3% for females. At age 10, it is 3% for males and 2% for females, and at age 18, it is 1% for males and extremely rare in females. 2 Classification 1. Primary enuresis: is that which has not been associated with a period of dryness following toilet training. It is often the result of inadequate and inappropriate toilet training by the parents. A recent studies suggest that, primary enuresis represents a variation in normal bladder control than a disease. 3 Children with primary enuresis have never been continent for a period of time lasting at least 3-6 months. Secondary enuresis: It begins after a dry period.It is usually associated with urinary tract infection, structural abnormalities,neurologic disorders or psychological disturbances. Atleast 15% of school children presenting to a doctor with nocturnal enuresis have secondary enuresis. 43. Nocturnal enuresis: It occurs when the child is asleep. It affects 85% of all enuretic children.4. Diurnal enuresis: It is both daytime and nighttime wetting. It affects about 5% of enuretic children.
The outcome of intestinal atresia following surgical repair is very good. In general, morbidity and mortality depend upon type of atresia, level of atresia and associated medical conditions such as prematurity or cystic fibrosis, other congenital anomalies, the complexity of the lesion, and surgical complications (anastomotic leakage, functional obstruction at the site of anastomosis).-1-2 But complete management of these patient is difficult. We managed a patient with type-IIIa ileal atresia, the outcome of which was excellent.
