A case of successful vaginal delivery in a patient with a repair of an imperforate anus

Abstract

As a general recommendation, women with a repair of an imperforate anus are candidates for vaginal deliveries if no contraindications exist. The adequacy (size and scarring) of the perineal body should be assessed by the obstetricians before making that decision. Together with a brief review of literature, we report a successful case of vaginal delivery in a woman with a repair of imperforate anus.
