An imperforate anus is a birth defect that happens while your baby is still growing in the womb. It occurs more often in boys than girls.
A one-day old male camel calf was presented to the Al-Qattara Veterinary Hospital with complaints of abdominal straining and lack of defecation. On examination it was found that the calf had no tail, the posterior sacral margin was blunt and the anal opening was absent.
An imperforate anus or anorectal malformations ARMs are birth defects in which the rectum is malformed. ARMs are a spectrum of different congenital anomalies in males and females which vary from fairly minor lesions to complex anomalies.
Congenital malformations recorded in 71 ruminants, including calves, lambs and kids, were retrospectively reviewed. There were 15 atresia ani, 10 atresia ani et recti, 2 atresia ani with vaginal and bladder agenesis, 11 anus vaginalis, 3 persistent cloaca, one persistent cloaca with spinal agenesis, 11 persistent urachus, 7 urethral diverticulum, 8 omphalocele and 3 meningoceles.
There are many potential etiologies, both heritable and acquired, and most are associated with inflammatory bowel disease IBD. Congenital conditions may have specific breed predilections.
